Chapter 10: Sound Beam

        Help!  

Question
Answer
show a single disc-shaped, unfocused PZT operating in CW mode  
🗑
As sound travels, what changes that affects the shape of a sound beam?   show
🗑
At the starting point, the beam width equals what?   show
🗑
What happens to the sound beam's width after leaving the starting point?   show
🗑
show Focus Near Zone Focal Length (focal depth, near zone length) Far Zone Focal zone  
🗑
show location where beam diameter is the narrowest  
🗑
show 1/2  
🗑
What are the synonyms of Focus?   show
🗑
What is Focal Length?   show
🗑
What determines the focal length?   show
🗑
What are some synonyms of focal length?   show
🗑
show region from the TD to the focus  
🗑
show the sound beam gradually narrows  
🗑
show the active element  
🗑
At the end of the near zone, the beam narrows to what?   show
🗑
show the Focus  
🗑
show near field, Fresnel zone  
🗑
show the region starting at the focus and extending deeper  
🗑
show the sound beam diverges  
🗑
With a disc-shaped crystal, how wide is the sound beam at the beginning of the far zone?   show
🗑
show the sound beam is again the same size as the active element  
🗑
show the sound beam is wider than the active element  
🗑
What are some synonyms of the Far Zone?   show
🗑
show the region around the focus where the beam is relatively narrow  
🗑
show creates images that are more accurate than those at other depths  
🗑
Where is the focal zone located?   show
🗑
What is the name of the area where image detail is improved?   show
🗑
What characteristics of fixed focus TD combine to determine focal depth?   show
🗑
show directly related  
🗑
show the focus is deeper  
🗑
show the focus is deeper  
🗑
show the focus is deeper  
🗑
How are frequency and focal depth related?   show
🗑
Why do manufacturers make high frequency TD with very small diameter PZT?   show
🗑
show at the end of the near zone  
🗑
At depths greater than the focus, the sound beam does what?   show
🗑
show Transducer diameter Frequency of sound  
🗑
A smaller crystal diameter produce beams that do what in the deep far zone?   show
🗑
Crystal diameter and beam divergence is related how?   show
🗑
show large diameter crystals due to less divergence  
🗑
show diverges less in the far field  
🗑
Frequency and beam divergence are related how?   show
🗑
show higher frequencies  
🗑
Sound waves produced by very small sources and diverge into a"V" shape are called what?   show
🗑
Spherical waves are created how?   show
🗑
Spherical waves are also known as what?   show
🗑
What are Huygen's sources?   show
🗑
What explains the inconsistency between the large PZT crystal producing an hourglass-shaped beam and the small sound source creating a V-shaped beam?   show
🗑
Large active element is composed of what?   show
🗑
Each tiny particle of a large active element is a what and creates a what with a V-shape?   show
🗑
The hourglass shape of a sound wave is a result of what?   show
🗑
show lateral resolution  
🗑
What units are used for lateral resolution?   show
🗑
show small numbers  
🗑
Lateral resolution is determined by what?   show
🗑
show narrow beam  
🗑
show depth  
🗑
show synonyms of lateral resolution Lateral Angular Transverse Azimuthal  
🗑
show within the focal zone  
🗑
Where is lateral resolution best?   show
🗑
What is the equation for lateral resolution?   show
🗑
show axial resolution is better than lateral resolution- U/S pulses are shorter than wide  
🗑
show axial resolution  
🗑
show because pulses wider than short  
🗑
What happens when 2 reflectors are closer side by side than the beam width>   show
🗑
What improves both axial and lateral resolution?   show
🗑
Why does a high frequency TD improve axial resolution?   show
🗑
Why does a high frequency TD improve lateral resolution?   show
🗑
What improves lateral resolution by concentrating sound energy into a narrow beam?   show
🗑
show External focusing - with a lens Internal focusing - with a curved active element Phased array focusing - done by electronics of U/S system  
🗑
Which types of focusing can be used with a single element TD?   show
🗑
show Phased array focusing  
🗑
show fixed, conventional or mechanical adjustable  
🗑
show external and internal focusing  
🗑
Fixed focusing techniques mean what?   show
🗑
show lens placed in front of the PZT material fixed focus with acoustic lens Arc of lens becomes prominent-degree of focusing increases-beam narrow in focal zone  
🗑
show Uses curved PZT element to concentrate sound energy forms narrower sound beam As curvature becomes more pronounced-degree of focusing increases  
🗑
What is the most common form of fixed focusing?   show
🗑
show Phased array transducers uses electronics of the U/S system to focus the sound beam  
🗑
Can sonographers alter the focusing characteristics of electronic focusing - phased array?   show
🗑
What are the first 2 of the four distinct alterations of the sound beam when its focused?   show
🗑
show Beam diameter in the far zone increases (more divergence) which improves lateral resolution in near and focal zone and degrades it beyond the focal zone; Focal zone is smaller (region on each side of the focus)  
🗑
