Transducer selection for pancreatic ultrasound based on skin to pancreas distance in the supine and upright position.

Abstract:

:In order to match the focal zone of the transducer with the depth of the organ, skin to pancreas distances were measured in 58 patients undergoing ultrasound studies. The measurements showed that a dynamically focused transducer would be most useful. In other cases the results of such measuring would help determine the selection of an appropriate transduction device.
