Persistence Market Research is released new forthcoming report on title "Medical Ultrasound Equipment Market: Global Industry Analysis and Forecast to 2020".

New York, NY -- (SBWire) -- 10/29/2014 --Medical ultrasound refers to a technology that uses high frequency sound wave to produce diagnostic images. Medical ultrasound is also known as sonography. Medical ultrasound is a non-invasive and safe procedure for examination of body parts such as the heart, organ and blood vessel in the abdomen and joints. Medical ultrasound uses non ionizing radiation and has greater sensitivity compare to other clinical examination. Medical ultrasound images are taken with the help of ultrasound gel. Ultrasound gels are conductive medium used by technicians and physicians before diagnosis of patient for clear diagnostics images. Medical ultrasound displays its output in various form such as audio, visual and graphics. Musculoskeletal, thyroid and scrotal ultrasound are some other procedure used to diagnose diseases. Medical ultrasound is performed by technologist with the help of ultrasound machines. Transducer probe, central processing unit, disk storage device are some important parts of the ultrasound machines. Medical ultrasounds are used in case of abdominal, cardiac, maternity, gynaecological and urological examinations. Medical ultrasound is also used in breast and small tissues examinations. Sonar device is most commonly used ultrasound equipment. Some of the medical applications of ultrasound are foetal monitoring, diagnostic imaging and blood flow management. Medical ultrasound imaging is also used in medicine as it provides guidelines to doctors through precise medical procedures. Ultrasound is less expensive as compares to other surgical procedure.
