UALH 272 - Sonographic Physics and Instrumentation

3 Credit(s)

This is a hybrid course that presents general acoustic principles to include the physics of energy transfer through wave propagation, surface reflection processes, transducer construction, beam profile consideration and Doppler, A-mode, B-mode, M-mode and real-time instrumentation. In addition, the applied principles of instrumentation, knobology, and quality control are emphasized. It is designed as the first of two courses.
Prerequisite(s): Acceptance into the DMS program.
