| | Articles - Medical ultrasonography |
 | | Medical ultrasonography (sonography) is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging technique used to visualize internal organs, their size, structure and any pathological lesions. | | | This is particularly useful in cardiovascular studies (ultrasonography of the vasculature and heart) and essential in many areas such as determining reverse blood flow in the liver vasculature in portal hypertension. | | | Ultrasonic energy was first applied to the human body for medical purposes by Dr. George D. Ludwig at the Naval Medical Research Institute, Bethesda, Maryland in the late 1940s. |

| | About |
| | Established in 1988 as the School of Medical Radiation Technology, the School's name was changed to the School of Medical Radiation Sciences in 1999 to better reflect its emphasis on scientific investigation of a wide range of medical radiation fields. | | | There are three streams in the Bachelor of Applied Science (Medical Radiation Sciences) course; Diagnostic Radiography, Nuclear Medicine and Radiation Therapy. | | | During the undergraduate course, students are given the opportunity to gain experience in the practice of their discipline whilst on clinical placements. |

| | Medical Imaging and Machine Vision - Machine Vision Online |
| | Medical imaging is a process by which physicians examine and evaluate an internal part of the human body for either diagnostic or research-related reasons. | | | In contrast, the other medical imaging modalities --with the exception of CT -- do not use photonic electromagnetic radiation (primarily light and x-rays) as a sensing medium and therefore fall outside the scope of machine vision. | | | The examples of DALSA, Micron and others suggest that medical imaging is becoming an increasingly important market opportunity for machine vision companies. |

| | Physics and Instrumentation of Diagnostic Medical Ultrasound |
| | It will be of great value to sonographers, radiographers, radiologists, medical physicists and technicians as an aid to the study of the clinical use of diagnostic ultrasound, and as an excellent introduction for those intending to investigate the subject in greater depth. | | | The field of diagnostic medical ultrasound is constantly changing as new equipment and techniques are developed and refined. | | | The use of ultrasound is increasing rapidly throughout the world and consequently a knowledge of the underlying scientific principles and instrument operation has become an essential part of medical ultrasound courses. |

| | history of Medical ultrasound / ultrasonography in Japan, Toshio Wagai |
| | Ultrasonic doppler techniques were first implemented by Shigeo Satomura and Yasuhara Nimura at the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research in Osaka, Japan in 1955 for the study of cardiac valvular motion and pulsations of peripheral blood vessels. | | | Wagai had thoughts that it might be possible to apply ultrasonic methods to the human body for medical diagnosis. | | | Advertisements of the first machine(world-wide) with real-time Color flow mapping capabilities from Aloka® (the SSD-880CW) made it's debut in medical journals in the middle of 1985 (It was produced in Japan in 1984). |

| | Furthermore, as medical abortion employs medications rather than surgery to terminate a pregnancy, it has the potential to greatly increase the availability of locations providing abortion services in the US, eliminating as it does the need for expensive equipment and surgical training. | | | In providing data to make these tests, however, the study protocol will not in any way abridge the medical abortion care currently received by clients at the participating facilities. | | | There are, in addition, several less-expensive and less technology-intensive approaches to gathering the diagnostic information currently being provided, pre- and post-procedure, by ultrasonography. |
