This chapter discussed the basic knowledge that one needs to acquire before they start the use of ultrasound scanning. These include the physics of sound/ultrasound and image generation by an ultrasound machine, how the image is acquired and processing in the ultrasound machine, the basic knowledge in operating an ultrasound machine (knobology), the basic sonoanatomy of tissue and common artifacts encountered in scanning, and the necessary terms and ergonomics for the performance of ultrasound scanning. A glossary is also included for various terms that are commonly encountered in ultrasound literature.

... Maximum visualization depth is limited by transducer's frequency, gain, TGC (Time Gain Compensation), focus depth, display format (number of scan lines), output power, and noise of the electronic system. Depth of penetration analysis is performed by scanning the phantom and freezing (choosing) the image, making measurement, and recording visualization of maximum depth of default echo, distance from scanning window to the deepest cylinder or the round object that is barely visible [9,10]. ...
