eCourse: Module 1A - Basic Math

The math covered in this module is foundational to the physics covered in all of the later modules. Knowledge of basic mathematics facilitates answering physics test questions quickly and efficiently. In addition to the basics of how to deal with fractions, reciprocals, unit conversions, and equation manipulation, you will find significant emphasis placed on understanding the physical relationships between variables as expressed by mathematical equations. By learning the mathematical terminology and understanding the physical relationships between variables in physics equations, your ability to comprehend and answer test questions will significantly improve.

This module is included in the Complete Physics eCourse or can be purchased separately.

eCourse: Module 1B - Advanced Math

In this module, we discuss the concept and application of logarithms, basic trigonometry, analog to digital conversion, the Nyquist Criterion, and constructive and destructive interference of waves. In comparison to the module covering basic mathematics, more of the content of this module is directly tested on exams. In summary, we will discuss the more advanced math concepts that will significantly improve your ability to appreciate, comprehend, and apply ultrasound physics.

This module is included in the Complete Physics eCourse or can be purchased separately.

eCourse: Module 2 - Waves

In this module, we start building the foundation for understanding what sound wave parameters can be changed to improve clinical information acquired during imaging, as well as building the foundation for understanding the potential risk of causing tissue damage referred to as a bioeffect.

This module is included in the Complete Physics eCourse or can be purchased separately.

eCourse: Module 3 - Attenuation

In this module, we discuss the three primary components of attenuation, which include absorption, reflection, and refraction. Most people find this chapter very interesting since it describes what physically occurs within the patient as imaging takes place. In essence, in this module, we come to better appreciate how the mechanical sound waves physically interact with the various mediums within the human body. Like the content discussed in the Wave module, this module directly affects our understanding of material discussed later such as bioeffects, system operation, and contrast and harmonics.

eCourse: Module 4 - Pulsed Wave

This module begins by considering the fundamental limitation of continuous wave transmission. The fact that we must use pulses to achieve depth resolution forces a discussion about a whole new group of timing considerations and issues, referred to as the pulse wave parameters. This discussion about PW timing and pulse characteristics becomes the foundation for understanding depth resolution, the point at which aliasing occurs, the calculation of the frame time and the frame rate, as well as temporal resolution. Additionally, in this module, we learn how the pulse duration affects the bandwidth and we learn about the benefits of broad band transducers.

eCourse: Module 5 - Transducers

We begin by discussing the theory of transducers, the piezoelectric effect, and basic ultrasound transducer design. We then discuss basic beam characteristics and the evolution of transducers. In this module, we review the evolution of transducer development in a unique manner. Instead of just listing characteristics of each transducer type, we will focus on the benefits and limitations of each transducer type so that we can understand the motivation for designing each successive generation of transducers. There are two very evident benefits from this approach. First, this approach puts each successive generation of transducer into historical perspective and into context as to why each generation came into existence. Second, this approach teaches transducers from the perspective of the advantages and disadvantages of each transducer type, which happens to form the foundation of many of the exam questions related to transducers.

eCourse: Module 6 - System Operation

In this module, we will learn how the system imaging controls affect all of the parameters we have discussed in previous modules. Within this module, we develop and discuss an ultrasound imaging system block diagram so that the various system knobs, buttons, and controls can be understood in the greater context of the interactions that take place within the ultrasound system. In addition to discussing the transmit power, receiver gain, time gain compensation, video compression, and data storage, we discuss some advanced system features such as compound imaging, spatial averaging, multiple transmit foci, and continuous receive focusing.

This module is included in the Complete Physics eCourse or can be purchased separately.

eCourse: Module 7a - Doppler System and Spectral Doppler

We begin this module by learning basic Doppler theory including deriving the Doppler equation from a discussion of the Doppler Effect. After developing the Doppler equation, we discuss how the Doppler equation is applied in ultrasound. We will develop the Doppler system block diagram so that Doppler controls can be understood in the greater context of performing a clinical exam. In this section we will discuss the Doppler controls of transmit, receiver gain, signal detection, the Doppler wall filters, video compression, the PRF, Doppler spectral processing, and the spectral display. After we have completed the block diagram we will then be ready to discuss basic spectral interpretation, angular effects, and the parameters affecting aliasing.

Basic spectral interpretation, angular effects, and the parameters affecting aliasing.

eCourse: Module 7b - Color Doppler

In this module, we discuss the application of the Doppler effect in color Doppler imaging, including color Doppler gain, color wall filters, color persistence, and color priority. As you will see, color Doppler has some characteristics similar to spectral Doppler, some characteristics similar to 2D imaging, and some characteristics that are unique just to color Doppler imaging. Finally, we will concentrate on the ability to distinguish flow direction from a color image, regardless of transducer format, vessel tortuousity, and aliasing.

eCourse: Module 8 - Artifacts

In the previous modules, we have discussed much of the physics as it relates to the production of artifacts. In this chapter, we formalize the physics concepts through examples and our discussion of the underlying principles. In essence, artifacts are generated whenever an assumption of ultrasound is violated. In this module, we discuss the imaging artifacts of limited detail resolution, reverberation, grating lobes, refraction, shadowing, enhancement, multi-path, and mirroring. Once the imaging artifacts have been reviewed, we discuss Doppler artifacts such as aliasing, wall filter saturation, spectral broadening, and blooming or blossoming.

eCourse: Module 9 - Bioeffects

Although ultrasound is considered to be a very safe modality, there is a small potential risk of doing damage to tissues, referred to as bioeffects. Because of this risk, practitioners must make prudent use of ultrasound. Obviously, in order to be prudent when applying ultrasound, an understanding must be developed of the mechanism by which bioeffects occur, as well as the parameters which most directly impact the likelihood of bioeffects. In this module we integrate previously reviewed concepts together to formalize our understanding of the two primary bioeffect risks, mechanical bioeffects, related to cavitation, and thermal bioeffects, related to temperature increase. Additionally, in this module we review some of the AIUM statements as regard the safety of ultrasound and the risk of bioeffects.

eCourse: Module 10 - Contrast and Harmonics

The introduction of contrast imaging and harmonic imaging has revolutionized ultrasound. We will discuss the mechanism and limitations of harmonic contrast, tissue perfusion and harmonic imaging of tissue. The use of harmonics has dramatically impacted the ultrasound world. In this module, we learn the relative amplitudes of normal blood, blood with a contrast agent, harmonic signals from blood, harmonic contrast blood signals, and harmonic signals from tissue. We then discuss how harmonics are generated from tissue without the use of a contrast agent, the non-linear aspects of harmonic signal generation, the benefits of harmonic imaging, and the limitations of harmonic imaging, as well as approaches to overcome these limitations.

eCourse: Module 11 - Quality Assurance

The first topic discussed in this module is Doppler system testing. In order to perform Doppler testing, specialized testing equipment has been developed including Doppler flow phantoms, string phantoms, and vibrating plate phantoms. We will then discuss image performance testing. As with Doppler, many different imaging phantoms have been designed to test imaging performance including the parameters of detail resolution, contrast resolution, sensitivity, image distortion, and measurement accuracy. In the third part of this module, we learn about statistical test validation. In this section, we learn the statistical parameters used to compare various aspects of a clinical test we want to validate against a gold standard test. This statistical information will also prove very useful for labs undergoing laboratory accreditation.

eCourse: Module 12 - Fluid Dynamics and Hemodynamics

The laws that govern fluid dynamics generally seem outside the intuitive grasp of many people. In this module we begin with a simple analogy which puts the complex content of this often scary topic in terms of a story to which everyone can relate. From this analogy, not only are general fluid dynamic principles appreciated, but also the foundation of the fluid dynamic equations are derived. Further use of analogies and thought experiments will then allow us to derive all of the equations needed, including the resistance equation, the simplified law of hemodynamics, the continuity equation, Poiseuille’s Law, and the Bernoulli equation. Once the equations are derived, we develop a conceptual appreciation of the equations through direct application in various clinical situations. Finally, we will learn how to relate the Doppler spectral characteristics with the hemodynamic concepts just learned.

eCourse: Module 13 - Test-taking Strategies

The ability to perform well on a multiple choice test is a skill that requires both fore-thought and practice. In this module, some very unique techniques are taught which will significantly change your test taking approach, as well as improve your test taking abilities. Within this module we will discuss concepts which include how best to read a test question, how to approach answering a test question, types of questions, distracter types, dealing with questions of inversion, logic and reasoning skills, and intelligent use of scrap paper. Additionally, specific test questions are given which allow for direct application of these concepts.
