            Ultrasound Imaging

            Diagnostic ultrasound, also known as medical sonography or ultrasonography, uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the inside of the body. The ultrasound machine sends sound waves into the body and converts the returning sound echoes into a picture. Ultrasound technology can also produce audible sounds of blood flow, allowing medical professionals to use both sounds and visuals to assess a patient's health.

            Ultrasound is often used to evaluate:

            • Abnormalities in the heart and blood vessels
            • Organs in the pelvis and abdomen
            • Pregnancy
            • Symptoms of pain, swelling, and infection

            Members serve as the industry voice for ultrasound manufacturers. They contribute expert technical advice, legislative engagement, and discussion of modality trends to the medical imaging industry.
