[Measuring the image quality of ultrasound B scanners]
Abstract:
Experience shows that both in the evaluation and in the purchase of ultrasonic scanners the subjective impression of the images plays a dominant role. The image intelligibility is investigated via tissue equivalent test phantoms and quantitatively analysed using the ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) method. Comparison of devices of different price categories shows that this investigation is an important addition to the analysis of image fidelity, provides additional important data for a comprehensive comparison of devices, and allows an objective determination of the price-benefit relation.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
