Ultrasound is used to monitor the development of a fetus during pregnancy, providing images by bouncing high-frequency sound waves off of tissues.

Sonography utilizes ultrasound waves to produce real-time images for the diagnosis and examination of internal body structures, also known as ultrasonography.

High-frequency ultrasound can increase cell membrane permeability, aiding in the targeted delivery of drugs to specific tissues within the body.

HIFU targets and destroys deep tissue with heat during treatment, used for procedures like non-invasive tumor ablation.

An ultrasonic scalpel uses high-frequency vibrations to cut and cauterize tissue simultaneously, reducing blood loss and improving surgical outcomes.

Ultrasound is used in physiotherapy to promote tissue healing and reduce pain through its warming and micro-massage effects on the body's tissues.

Ultrasound cleaners create cavitation bubbles in a cleaning solution that collapse and generate high forces, which remove contaminants from intricate jewelry surfaces.

Ultrasound NDT methods use sound waves to detect internal flaws in materials without damaging them, often used in pipeline and structural inspections.

A fetal Doppler uses ultrasound to detect the heartbeat of a fetus, which is a useful tool for monitoring its well-being in the womb.

In this cosmetic procedure, ultrasonic vibrations liquefy fat cells before removal, making the liposuction process less invasive and more effective.

This technique involves threading an ultrasound probe into blood vessels to visualize and assess the interior of arteries and veins.

Ultrasound lithotripsy is a procedure where focused ultrasonic waves are used to break up kidney stones into small particles that can be more easily passed by the body.

Dental tools are cleaned using ultrasonic baths to ensure thorough sterilization, where the sound waves dislodge microorganisms and debris.

Similar to human applications, ultrasound provides veterinarians with a non-invasive way to examine the internal organs of animals for diagnostic purposes.
