Показать описание

This video includes an introduction to the clinical ultrasound course and the physics of ultrasound waves.

Bedside ultrasound continues to grow in popularity among clinicians...and for good reason.

Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) often makes diagnosing medical problems & performing procedures faster, safer, & more cost-effective.

Physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, technicians & other professionals can benefit from ultrasound in almost every medical setting & specialty

Ultrasound that is performed by the clinician, at the bedside, is called many names: clinical ultrasound, bedside ultrasound, & point of care ultrasound (POCUS).

Small correction...A sound wave is a sine wave...if its has Sinusoidal pattern plotting of 2 dimensionally (pressure) vs. Time....otherwise great video - RN student and Former Engineer.

Another way to explain the relationship between frequency and penetrance: low frequency means having a longer wavelength and thus more energy and focus therefore producing a larger penetrance. Whereas, high frequency means having a smaller wavelength and less energy and focus..and less penetrance.

Thank you for this video the is by far the easiest explanation to understand !

To my understanding amplitude is from the middle of the wave to either the peak or trough. Please correct me if I'm wrong. According to your video, it says from peak to the trough. Thank you for your videos

I'm sorry I'd like to see the transducer topic.
I'm searching for it and I find it.
