lateral), __________ frame rate and ___________ temporal resolution. increase/decrease? -
increases, decreases, decreases
a wave that requires a medium through which to travel, cannot travel in a vacuum - mechanical
wave
transducer that requires mechanical focusing and steering. electrical focusing and steering is not possible
- single element transducer
Multiple elements used to create an image by varying timing of the electrical pulses to different
elements in the array - phased array
high frequency probes have ________ penetration and _________ resolution - low, high
Combine sequenced linear array and phased array techniques to provide a trapezoidal imaging format -
vector array
In a sector image, the number of scan lines per degree of the sector determines ______ - line
density
increasing sector angle will have _________ spatial resolution and ________ temporal resolution.
degraded/improved? - improved, degraded
decreasing sector angle will _______ spatial resolution and ________ temporal resolution.
degrade/improve - degrade, improve
