MIROIR ACOUSTIQUE [1 record]

Record 1 2024-08-05

English

Subject field(s)
  • Ultrasonography
CONT

Acoustic mirrors are always highly reflective and therefore intensely echogenic interfaces.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Ultrasonographie
CONT

L'os et l'air, au regard des interfaces qu'ils génèrent avec les autres tissus, ne permettent pas une transmission suffisante des échos pour être explorés. L'essentiel des échos est alors réfléchi, on parle de miroir acoustique. L'interface «miroir» est ainsi hyperéchogène.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Ecografía
CONT

El gas refleja casi el 100% del sonido que llega, por lo que es el mejor espejo acústico del organismo.
