| | Medical ultrasonography - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | 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. | | | Medical ultrasonography is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging technique used to visualize internal organs, their size, structure and their pathological lesions. | | | Hertz was familiar with using ultrasonic reflectoscopes for nondestructive materials testing, and together they developed the idea of using this method in medicine. |

| | Ultrasonography can be used to guide needle aspiration and biopsy of masses. | | | Ultrasonography can therefore pick up critical stenoses which require surgery and display the site of the stenosis at the same time. | | | It is used, however, to locate and drain small effusions in pleural disease (especially for patients in intensive care in whom supine chest radiographs may be difficult to interpret). |

| | Ultrasonography: Recommendations for its appropriate use in routine antenatal care in Nigeria - O.S. Sotiloye |
| | To use ultrasonography to provide our clients with the most appropriate and effective level of obstetric care, it is important that not only are practitioners trained in the appropriate use of this equipment, but also its use is governed by guidelines. | | | However, ultrasonography could be carried out for specific indications to assist the practitioner in clinical decision and management process. | | | The need for appropriate level of training, accreditation and regulation of the practice of ultrasonography is an area that needs further investigation so that the practice can be standardised and quality of care assured. |
