    Bioeffects
    Concerns Surrounding the Use of Diagnostic Ultrasound
    During a diagnostic ultrasound  examination, high frequency 
    sound penetrates and interacts with tissue in and around the 
    area of anatomy to be imaged. Only a small portion of this sound 
    energy is reflected back to the probe for use in constructing the 
    image while the remainder is dissipated within the tissue. The 
    interaction of sound energy with tiss ue at sufficiently high levels 
    can produce biological effects (aka bioeffects) of either a 
    mechanical or thermal nature. Although the generation of 
    bioeffect is intentional with therape utic ultrasound, it is generally 
    undesired in diagnostic applicat ions and may be harmful in 
    some conditions.
    NOTE: The American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) has  published a document entitled Medical Ultrasound Safety.  
    This three part document covers Bioeffects and Biophysics, 
    Prudent Use and Implementing ALARA.
    Ultrasound users should read the AIUM documents to become 
    more familiar with Ultrasound safety . A copy of this document is 
    included as part of the documentation package (Document 
    2163920-100).

    Measurement Precision and Uncertainty
    Precision and measurement uncertainty of the system used to 
    measure the acoustic output is pr ovided in the following table. 
    These values are determined in accordance with Section 6.4 of 
    the Standard for Real-Time Display of Thermal and Mechanical 
    Acoustic Output Indices on Diagnostic Ultrasound Equipment, 
    rev 2 AIUM/NEMA 2004, and the Acoustic Output Measurement 
    Standard for Diagnostic Ultrasound Equipment, rev 3 NEMA 
    2004.

    Thermal Bioeffect
    As with most forms of energy,ultrasound is attenuated as it 
    passes through tissue and is converted to heat,which if 
    produced at sufficient rates, w ill increase tissue temperature to a 
    point where tissue damage may result.Major factors contributing 
    to thermal bioeffect can can be categorised as tissue 
    categorized as tissue characteri stics or control parameters.
    • Physical tissue char acteristics like acoustic impedence 
    ,attenuation ,absorption,and perfusion determine the 
    rates of heat production and heat transfer.The 
    susceptibility of some tissu es ,further complicate the 
    concern for Long-term effects.
    • The Time Average density of available Ultrasound  energy is mainly determined by acoustic parameters like 
    output frequency,Pulse amplitude ,Pulse duration,duty 
    cycle,beam shape,and beam motion.These parameters 
    are controlled by the operator through equipment 
    selections such as probe type, operating mode ,focul 
    depth,sample volume location,and output control 
    settings.the operator also ha s significant influence by 
    controlling probe motion and dwell time. These “Control 
    Parameters” from the means through which the 
    operator can minimize thermal bioeffect.
