Mcat-review lists the following facts about ultrasound:
Sound has 3 fundamental properties: reflection, refraction, and diffraction.
Ultrasound imaging is based on the reflection property of sound.
A source emits ultrasound, which reflects off a surface back into the detector to form an image.
Ultrasound is sound that is too high in frequency for humans to hear.
For MCAT purposes, what else should I know? Ultrasound is listed as an AAMC topic.
