What Is Speed Of Sound In Ultrasound? Ultrasound machines assume sound waves travel at a speed of 1540 m/sec through tissue 1. In reality, the speed of sound is affected by the density and elasticity of the medium through which it is traveling and these factors are not constant for human tissues. How is ultrasound

What Absorbs The Most Ultrasound Energy? Generally, the tissues with the higher protein content will absorb ultrasound to a greater extent, thus tissues with high water content and low protein content absorb little of the ultrasound energy (e.g. blood and fat), while those with a lower water content and a higher protein content will absorb
