Ultrasound

Ultrasound is a high-frequency sound wave. Ultrasound waves can be bounced off of tissues using special devices. The "echoes" are then converted into a picture called a sonogram. Ultrasound imaging allows individuals to get an inside view of soft tissues and body cavities, without using invasive techniques.
