DMS 121 - Sonography Physics II

Lecture - Lab - Credit Hours: 3-0-3
This course is a continuation of the Sonography Physics-I course. It provides an in-depth explanation of ultrasound physics as it relates to real-time imaging and instrumentation. It examines various aspects of ultrasound system designs and emphasizes essential ultrasound topics such as pre and postprocessing, real-time imaging characteristics, imaging resolution, transducer types and their functions, Doppler effect, color-Doppler and spectral-Doppler instruments, types of flow, artifacts, bioeffects and safety.
