The document outlines an agenda for a sales presentation focusing on medical equipment. It begins with introducing the company, its products, and basic physics of ultrasound technology. It then discusses using the FAB (Features, Advantages, Benefits) method to showcase products. The document provides examples of features, advantages, and benefits for portable ultrasound machines A5 and A8. It emphasizes that FAB helps organize presentations, explain products more easily to customers, and focus on fulfilling customer needs. The agenda concludes with a sales call section.

10. Heat is a very effective means of killing tissue. As tissue
temperature rises above 113° F (50° C), protein is permanently
damaged and cell membranes fuse.
The process is rapid, typically requiring less than 10-15 minutes
exposure time for a 3cm ablation.

Revolution in Pain Management
What is Pain?
80% of the adult population suffers once or twice
from lumbar or cervical pain.
In the majority, the symptoms disappear
automatically. In 10% of the cases/patients, the pain
becomes chronic.
19. Frequency ranges of sound
Sound is divided in frequency ranges:
Sound classification:
• 0 Hz - 20 Hz Infra-sound
• 20 Hz - 20 kHz Audible sound
• 20 kHz - 1 GHz Ultrasound
• > 1 GHz Hyper-sound
20. Ultrasound and Diagnostic Sonography
The range of human hearing is from 20Hz to 20KHz. And ultrasound is sound wave with a
frequency greater than the upper limit of human hearing. The frequency of ultrasound
we use in diagnosis is typically between 1 MHz to 20 MHz.
Diagnostic Sonography is the application of ultrasound to the purpose of medical
imaging.
Based on the knowledge of ultrasound’s characteristics, such as propagation and
reflection in biological tissues, sonographers can visualize and study the anatomic
structure and movement of biological tissues, by transmitting, receiving and analyzing
ultrasound signals.
Acoustic Impedance
Ultrasound (or any kind of sound waves) travels at different speed in different tissues;
because different tissues have different “resistance” to sound waves. This is called
acoustic impedance.
For example, ultrasound travels at 1480 M/S in fat tissues, 1570 M/S in blood. For basic
use, doctors assume that ultrasound travels in the human body with an average speed of
1540M/S.
21. Generation of sound
An ultrasound wave is generated when an electric field is
applied to an array of piezoelectric crystals (PZT) located in
the transducer. Electrical stimulation causes mechanical
distortion of the crystals resulting in vibration and production
of sound waves. In turn, when receiving signals, the PZT plate
converts ultrasound wave (mechanical vibration) to electric
.signals which the machine can read
22. Generation of sound
In the transducer there are small
crystals, the so-called piëzo-
electric crystals. When a voltage
is applied a piëzo-electric crystal
will expand .

A Piëzo-ceramic

voltage pulse and

25. Generation of echo pulses
Also when the Piëzo crystal
is compressed by an outside
force a voltage is produced.
26. Pressure to voltage exchange

electric signals because of change in size.
28. Frequency ranges of sound
The choice of the ultrasound frequency is important. As resolution and penetration
depend on this frequency.
• Lower frequencies will penetrate better, while
• Higher frequencies will give a better resolution.
Low frequency (e.g. 3.75 MHz(
High frequency (e.g. 12 MHz(

29. frequency & penetration &
Resolution
• The attenuation in tissue
increase with frequency,
therefore there is always a
dilemma between
resolution and penetration .
the optimal resolution is at
the highest frequency, but
as the frequency increase
the penetration decrease
30. Display modes
There are various ways to display an ultrasound image:
• A-mode,
• B-mode,
• M-mode
• Color Doppler
• Doppler spectrum
31. A-modeAmplitude mode.
This mode displays the amplitudes of the received echo signals as a
graph against depth (= time(.
In the “old” days A-mode scanning was mainly used for cardiac
applications and for scanning the brain. Only one ultrasound line can be
viewed. This mode is hardly used anymore.
37. Real-time B-mode
• The different lines of
the images are made
either by the
movements of the
transducer in a
mechanical probe or by
steering of the beam in
electronic probes.
39. M-mode
motion mode
•All reflectors along one
acoustic line of the image
are analyzed in time.
•This technique is applied
in cardiology for studying
motion of the valves.
40. Construction image of a M-mode
The M-mode line is scanned and displayed, when the next line is
scanned it is displayed on the right of the previous.
B-modeM-mode

41. Resolution
Resolution is the ability of a system to
resolve two adjacent objects as being two
separate objects. The two objects should also
be displayed in their original size and shape.
A high resolution, therefore, means the
ability to distinguish small objects at a short
distance from each other.
There are 3 types of resolution:
• Lateral resolution
• Axial (depth) resolution
• Z-resolution (slice thickness)

42. Lateral resolution
This is the ability to resolve separate objects situated in a plane, perpendicular to the direction
of propagation of the sound beam.

Unresolved objects
Propagation direction of sound beam
Lateral resolution is influenced by:
• Beam width, which is depending on focussing
• Number of raster lines (line density),
• Distance between target and probe.

44. Axial resolution
The axial resolution is the ability to resolve separate objects situated in
line with the direction of propagation of the sound beam.

distance
The axial resolution depends on the frequency of the transducer
46. Ultrasound Image
• Electrical signals produce dots on the
screen.
• Brightnes of the dot depends on strength
of reflected echoes.
• Location of the dot is determined by travel
time
47. Ultrasound Image
Strong reflections = white dots
Diaphragm, gallstones, bone
Weaker reflections = grey dots
Most solid organs, thick fluid
No reflections = black dots
Fluid within a cyst, urine, blood
