Resonance by rod-shaped reflectors in ultrasound test objects.

Abstract:

:Rod-shaped reflectors such as those used in the AIUM test object resonate at medical ultrasound frequencies, producing artifacts posterior to the reflector. Rods of various diameters and materials were examined to determine their resonant properties, and the effect of the Plexiglas scanning surface of the enclosure on image quality was studied. A theory predicting the resonant frequencies of rods is proposed, and methods of eliminating resonance artifacts are discussed.

  • Cytogenetic effects of contrast material in patients undergoing excretory urography.

    abstract::Acentric chromosome fragments produced in cells by irradiation or other agents give rise to micronuclei in daughter cells. The micronuclei can be counted readily in large numbers of cells which provides a sensitive measure of chromosome aberrations. Previous studies have shown that the presence of contrast material en...
