Schallkopfposition
Schallkopfposition refers to the specific placement and orientation of a sound transducer, commonly known as a transducer head or probe, in medical imaging and therapeutic applications. This positioning is critical for obtaining optimal diagnostic images or delivering therapeutic energy to a targeted area within the body. The transducer emits and receives ultrasonic waves, and its angle, depth, and contact with the skin significantly influence the clarity and accuracy of the generated ultrasound images.
In diagnostic ultrasound, the Schallkopfposition is adjusted by the sonographer to visualize different anatomical structures. This
For therapeutic ultrasound, the Schallkopfposition is equally important, but the focus shifts to precisely directing energy
