Ultrasound probe emitting sound with wavelength of 70 mm in air (sound speed 343 m/s) is used for probing a muscle tissue (sound speed 1500 m/s). What are the smallest features in air and the muscle tissue that can be seen with this device? (doesn’t have to be typed in, may scan a solution)
Wavelength of Ultrasound in air
Wave speed of Ultrasound waves in air
Wave speed of Ultrasound waves in muscle tissue
Wavelength of Ultrasound in muscle tissue
Ultrasound is defined as sound waves with a frequency more than
According to above data, frequenbcy of Ultra sound wave used is
According to Rayleigh criterion, smallest angular size resoled is where is diameter of lens of imaging device.
Hence angular size of smallest feature that can be detected in air is
Hence angular size of smallest feature that can be detected in muscle is
