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.

Orthogonal planes of a 3 dimensional sonographic volume with transverse and coronal measurements for estimating fetal cranial volume. Medical ultrasound (also known as diagnostic sonography or ultrasonography) is a diagnostic imaging technique based on the application of ultrasound. It is used to see internal body structures such as tendons, muscles, joints, vessels and internal organs. Its aim is often to find a source of a disease or to exclude any pathology. The practice of examining pregnant women using ultrasound is called obstetric ultrasound, and is widely used.
