Description
Part of the popular How, Why and When series of introductory textbooks, Ultrasound Physics and Technology is ideally tailored for students and healthcare practitioners needing a comprehensive understanding of the basic principles behind how sound waves and echoes create ultrasound images.

Easy to read, concise and highly accessible, this book is perfect for readers who do not have a physics or technology background. It covers how ultrasound produces diagnostic images, why it is used in different clinical scenarios, and when its use as a diagnostic tool is appropriate.

The book has been fully updated to incorporate the latest technology and developments, and will be an invaluable guide for all sonography practitioners and students who wish to practise ultrasound safely and effectively.
