Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of structures within the body. Different ultrasound modes - A, M, and B - are used to examine different body parts and can be controlled by the operator. B-mode, or brightness mode, produces a 2D image map and displays echo signals as varying shades of gray. It provides a large field of view and allows real-time imaging of movement at rates of 10 frames per second.

As we enter in the Modern day, we are witnessing dawn of the new trend in which closed body operating procedures are more often being performed through minimal access. This development is the consequence of vision and work of many dedicated individuals. They include early pioneers of endoscopy who planted the seed and lastly the current pioneers who pushed and expanded these frontiers to give rise the birth of modern laparoscopy. Therapeutic laparoscopic surgery was introduced into the surgical practice recently and within a short span of time, it has become established as defacto standard for the treatment of chronic cholelithiasis and many advanced laparoscopic procedures can be performed safely. Laparoscopic surgery, what we should witness today, may be the culmination of over a hundred years of painstaking efforts from the number of pioneers within the fields of optics, instrumentation and video laparoscopic camera. Few advances in medicine occur in isolation. The innate human curiosity to peer within the body cavities can be traced back to ancient times. However, due to primitive technology and crude instruments, several ambitions were not realized. It is probably safe to say that first laparoscopy would not have been performed had it not been for the efforts of many physicians in 1800s to develop endoscope. The device developed by Theodore Stein in mid 1880 contains all the aspects of the current endoscopic documentation system. There was a crude endoscope and a high intensity light source. Illumination was made by continuously feeding a magnesium wire into an ignition chamber utilizing a clockwise mechanism. Light from this combustion was reflected to the tube utilizing a mirror. Finally the look was focused on to some photographic plate through coupling optics.

Capacitive micro-machined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) is a transducer where the energy transduction is due to modify in capacitance. This paper
anticipated an oscillator based ultrasonic sensors can be mainly used to intravascular applications and other medical field applications such as liver,
stomach, liver, heart, tendons, muscles, and joints. The readout circuits are validated with a capacitive micro machined ultrasonic transducer and a
current-to-frequency chip. The CMOS CMUTs are integrated with a current amplifier circuit on the same chip and current-to-frequency chip that
provides the current-to frequency readout interface. Ultrasound waves does not use any ionizing radiation, has no known harmful effects, and
presents an clear images of soft tissues that don’t show up well on x-ray images, thus there is no radiation exposure to the patient. The ultrasound is
usually between 2 and 18MHz and also higher frequencies present better and clear quality images. The ultrasound images are captured in real-time;
they can show the structure and movement of the body's internal organs, as well as blood flowing through blood vessels. These devices work on a
principle related to that of transducers used in radar and sonar systems. Also, the instance-based output signal can be further digitized with a time-to
digital converter. Both chips are fabricated in an 180nm CMOS MEMS process technology. The CMUTs are designed with 1MHz to 4MHz cells for
intravascular diagnosis applications.
Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

2. Ultrasound is an imaging method that uses
high-frequency sound waves to produce images
of structures within our body.
The ultrasonic image is an electronic
representation of data generated from
returning echoes and displayed on a monitor.
3. Ultrasound imaging, different modes are
used to examine the different parts of
our body. The different types of modes
can be controlled by the operator .
These are follows:
A MODE
M MODE
B MODE
4. Amplitude modulation.
Is the display of amplitude spikes of
different heights.
It represents the time required for the
ultrasound beam to strike a tissue
interface and return its signal to the
transducer.
The greater the reflection at the tissue
interface, the larger the signal amplitude
on the A-mode screen.
5. Consists of a x and y axis,
X represents the depth and y
represents the Amplitude
Depth
Amplitude
6. A mode is used in ophthalmology,
echoencephalography and echocardiology.
Used as an adjunct to B mode displays
when accurate depth measurements are
required.
7. No memory is built
Discards previous pulses as it receives
new ones
Permanent record made by photographing
the electronic display
8. Motion Mode is also called Time Motion or
TM-Mode.
Is the display of a one-dimensional image
that is used for analyzing moving body
parts.
Spikes are converted into dots.
The single sound beam is transmitted and
the reflected echoes are displayed as dots
This mode allows to trace motion
10. ADVANTAGES:-
It is most useful in echocardiography and
fetal cardiac imaging.
DISADVANTAGES:-
• Only one dimension is represented
• Short time that can be recorded
11. B-mode means Brightness mode.
• Display of the 2D map.
• Display echo signal are electrically converted to intensity
modulated dots on the screen.
• Brightness depends upon the amplitude or intensity of the
echo.
• The B mode produces a picture of a slice of a tissue.
• B mode display is used both in generating M-mode trace and
in gray scale.
13. B-mode took a major step forward with the
advert of gray scale imaging in 1972.
Display the great variation of the amplitudes of
the echoes arising from tissues as varying
shades of gray on a monitor.
It was made by the development of scan
conversion memory tube called scan converter.
15. • Real Time imaging systems are those that
have frame rates fast enough to allow
movement to be followed.
• It can produce multiple frames in a very
short time, typically10 frames per second.
This allows movement to be viewed in
“real time” as the images are generated.
