Acoustic scanning
Acoustic scanning is a technique that uses sound waves to create detailed images of the inside of objects or the human body. It works by emitting high-frequency sound pulses, which bounce off structures and return as echoes. These echoes are then collected and analyzed to generate images, revealing shapes, details, or abnormalities. Commonly used in medical imaging (like ultrasound), acoustic scanning is non-invasive, safe, and effective for diagnosing various conditions, guiding procedures, or inspecting materials and structures without the need for physical cutting or intrusive methods.
