What is the Procedure of Ultrasound?
Ultrasound is performed at a healthcare facility where the provider uses a device called a probe or transducer to pass over or inside of the body opening for the diagnosis purpose. A thin layer of water-based gel is applied on the skin so that the ultrasound waves from the transducer are transmitted in the body through the gel. The electrical current is converted into high-frequency sound waves through the probe, these sound waves go into the body tissues. These sound waves bounce back from the structures to the probe, which converts these signals back into electrical signals. These signals are converted into the pattern of real-time images or videos that are displayed on the screen.
