Ultrasound is cyclic sound pressure with a frequency greater than the upper limit of human hearing. Although this limit varies from person to person, it is approximately 20 kilohertz (20,000 hertz) in healthy, young adults and thus, 20 kHz serves as a useful lower limit in describing ultrasound. The production of ultrasound is used in many different fields, typically to penetrate a medium and measure the reflection signature or supply focused energy. The reflection signature can reveal details about the inner structure of the medium, a property also used by animals such as bats for hunting. The most well known application of ultrasound is its use in sonography to produce pictures of fetuses in the human womb. There are a vast number of other applications as well.

Approximate frequency ranges corresponding to ultrasound, with rough guide of some applications A fetus in its mother's womb, viewed in a sonogram (brightness scan) An ultrasound examination in East Germany, 1990

Are those ultrasound training devices for dogs really effective? Do they really work?
Q. Are they harmful for puppies? I'm considering one because i have a schnauzer who is very aggresive to me, and she is still a puppy. Do you recommend the ultrasound training?

How do you know if your ultrasound is normal?
Q. I had an ultrasound (I'm 27 weeks) and my baby had his head down and was pushed right up against my cervical opening should I be concerned?? I'm a high risk pregnancy already. I just had the ultrasound this morning so I haven't heard from the doctor yet.

A. having the baby's head near your cervix just means that it is in the normal cephalic presentation. what would be abnormal (at 27 weeks) is if there are signs that your cervical canal is opening/dilating, or if there are indications that the membrane has ruptured (usually indicated by a low amniotic fluid index).
