Ultrasound in Medicine (Ultrasound Experimental Set 2)

This set has been developed for medical vocational training for students at technical colleges and at medical-technical subjects. The main subject focus is upon the application of ultrasound technology in medical diagnostics.
In assembling the experiments, great importance has been attached to, above all, comprehensive conveying of fundamental knowledge, before the different diagnostic ultrasound techniques such as A-Scan, B-Scan and M-mode are explained in further experiments.

Ultrasound in Material Science and Engineering (Ultrasound Experimental Set 3)

One main field of application of ultrasound is the non-destructive testing (NDT). Ultrasound testing has here become established as a standard procedure for the analysis of material faults, such as cracks, cavities, gas bubbles and inhomogeneities, in an extremely wide variety of materials, such as metals, plastics or composites. A large number of methods have been developed for performing the individual testing tasks.
With this experimental set, some of the most common ultrasound testing methods, such as e.g. the pulse echo method and the through-transmission method, angle beam testing and the TOFD procedure, are explained and applied to different material samples.

Lab Experiments:

  • PHY01  Basics of pulse echo method (A-Scan)

  • PHY06  Frequency dependence of resolution power

  • IND01  Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

  • IND03  Level measurement

  • IND06  Angle beam testing

  • IND07  Crack depth determination (TOFD)
