Language does not simply mirror reality, it helps create our sense of reality by giving meaning to events. Rather than thinking of ideas in coming up with words to express them, we usually think in words. Inaccurate use of language can harm speakersâ credibility by making them sound less intelligent or ill informed.
Ultrasound is high frequency sound wave with frequencies of 20 kHz or higher. (Fig. 1) Ultrasound has many practical applications. It is often used in cameras to measure distance and used in ships to measure sea depth.However, more interesting applications of ultrasound are in the field of medicine. Using an array of piezoelectric transducers, ultrasound can be used to image the internal organs.Fig. 1) Ultrasound has many practical applications.

Ultrasound is energy in the form of sound waves. The most common type of ultrasound exam is called two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound. In this type of ultrasound, a transducer sends sound waves through the body. The sound waves hit tissues, body fluids, and bones.
