Transducer Instrumentation and System Components: Part 1
Transducer Instrumentation and System Components: Part 1
This video explains the fundamental components of ultrasound systems and how they work together, with detailed focus on the pulser's role in controlling acoustic beam output power, amplitude, frequency, and pulse repetition. Students learn how pulser voltage directly affects image brightness, signal-to-noise ratio, and the trade-offs between diagnostic quality and patient safety in ultrasound imaging.

19:56 lessonHello, welcome to Prep's Ultrasound Physics Registry Review course. I'm Jenna LA Care, an A-R-D-M-S certified Sonographer and your guide through the exciting journey of ultrasound physics. So our ultrasound system both transmits an electrical signal to the ultrasound transducer so that it can generate, um, a sound beam as well as receives electrical signals that get produced by the PZT within the...
