1 Physical and Technical Fundamentals of Ultrasound and
Doppler Ultrasound
History
Ultrasound was introduced into medical diagnostic
practice about 50 years ago. It has achieved an outstanding place among diagnostic imaging procedures
by its versatility, the increasingly robust validity of its
imaging results, its economy, and its safety for patients
even with numerous repeated exposures.
In 1942 the Austrian neurologist Dussik was the first
to penetrate the skull with sound to display the ventricles. He called his method hyperphonography. By
the end of the 1940s the reflection of ultrasound was
being used in the United States for the examination of
biological materials. In 1949 Ludwig and Struthers described the use of ultrasound to locate gallstones.
Howry and Bliss in 1950 were able to demonstrate anatomical details, developing B-mode technology. The
Oscillation, Sound Wave
Figure 1.1illustrates the generation and propagation of
a sound wave. When a molecule is made to oscillate
around its resting phase, the oscillation is transmitted
to a neighboring molecule in the medium, from this to
the next molecule and so on. In this way energy of motion, transmitted from molecule to neighboring
molecule, spreads in sinus waves through the medium.
This continuous propagation of the energy of motion is
called a wave or sound wave. It results in alternating
compression and rarefaction in the medium. The
material to be measured was placed in a water bath.
Also in 1950 the Swedish neurosurgeon Lars Leksell
laid the foundation for echoencephalography by recording the middle echo in an intact skull. Edler and
Herz described echocardiography for the first time in
1954.
Satumura was the first to report on ultrasonic Dop-
pler methods for the evaluation of cardiac function.
The introduction of real-time imaging by Krause and
Soldner led to vast advances in the noninvasive examination of the human body.
In what follows we provide an overview of the most
important physical and technical fundamentals of current ultrasonic diagnosis.
atoms and molecules can oscillate along or across the
direction of propagation. Hence we can distinguish between longitudinal waves (in the direction of propagation) and transverse waves (across the direction of
propagation). Only longitudinal waves can be propagated in gases and fluids, because sound waves lack the
shear force necessary for transverse transmission.
Physically, biological tissue can be viewed as a viscid
liquid. The stronger the cohesion between the
molecules, i. e., the denser the material, the greater is
