Medical Physica Ultrasound
Medical Physics. Ultrasound Sounds, including ultrasounds, are mechanical longitudinal waves, meaning they are created by vibrations in a medium. Hearing range is ~20 Hz to 20 000 Hz. Sounds with a frequency greater than 20 000 Hz are ultrasounds. Diagnostic ultrasound, however, uses frequencies ranging from 1 to 10 MHz. Ultrasounds generally have a very short wave length and as a result are much more easily reflected than sound in the normal hearing range. Ultrasounds
