I the physics lab, we measured for the lateral resolution, using an AIUM test object and we determined that it varies with the focus, depth, frequency and type of the transducer used.
This week was my first week at my new clinical rotation: John C Lincoln Medical Center. The drive was not as bad as I thought, and the employees are very nice. The techs that I work with mostly are Earl, Amy and Kay. The most interesting case that I got to see was a craniotomy in the OR. We placed the hockey stick transducer, right on the brain, after a piece of skull was removed, and we imaged the tumor, that was right underneath the pia mater. It was very interesting, and I would like to see more of these cases.
