MIDS 139 - Sonography Principles & Instrumentation 1
Credits: 3 Total Hours: 75
Students examine the function and safe operation of ultrasound equipment, transducers, and accessory equipment found in diagnostic medical sonography environments. Students learn about the underlying physical and electronic principles of producing two-dimensional and three-dimensional anatomic and flow imaging using sounds pitched higher than that of human hearing. Students learn how to use special instruments to produce anatomic images generated by pulse-echo techniques. By identifying factors necessary for successful image production and considering conditions negatively affecting image quality, students learn how to operate ultrasound equipment properly.
