Happy Ultrasound Awareness Month!
What is an ultrasound?
An ultrasound is an imaging technique that
uses high-frequency sound waves to produce
images of the inside of the body. These sound
waves bounce off organs, tissues, and fluids,
and the returning echoes
create images.
Who performs an ultrasound?
A sonographer is a trained healthcare
professional who specializes in using
ultrasound equipment to capture images of
organs, tissues, and blood vessels.
Sonographers play an important role in providing
detailed images that help healthcare providers
make accurate diagnoses.
