Question

To form an image the ultrasound machine needs to calculate the distance between the foetus and the probe. The ultrasound waves move through the abdomen at a speed of 1540 m/s. What measurement must the machine make so that it can calculate the distance?

Answer 1

Answer: To generate images for an ultrasound scan, machines need to determine the distance of reflective interfaces from the transducer.

It's formula is ,

distance = (speed x time)/2

here, time = time taken for the pulsed

sound-wave to reach the interface and the

resultant echo to return to the transducer

And speed of sound through human tissues

(v) = 1540 m/s

Hope it is Ur answer

Thanks
