WHAT ARE THE USES OF ULTRASONIC SOUND IN A HOSPITAL ?
Hi Anu!
Ultrasound is used in hospitals for many diagnosis and treatments. Some of them are:
(1) Medical imaging to visualize muscles, tendons, and many internal organs, to capture their size, structure and any pathological lesions with real time tomographic images.
(2) In the detection of pelvic abnormalities
(3) Focused high-energy ultrasound pulses can be used to break calculi such as kidney stones and gallstones into fragments small enough to be passed from the body without undue difficulty, a process known as lithotripsy.
(4) Treating benign and malignant tumors and other disorders via a process known as high intensity focused ultrasound.
(5) Cleaning teeth in dental hygiene.
(6) Focused ultrasound sources may be used for cataract treatment by phacoemulsification.
(7) Ultrasound is essential to the procedures of ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy and endovenous laser treatment for the non-surgical treatment of varicose veins.
Cheers!!
