Ultrasonic imaging: safety considerations
Open accessAbstract
Modern ultrasound imaging for diagnostic purposes has a wide range of applications. It is used in obstetrics to monitor the progress of pregnancy, in oncology to visualize tumours and their response to treatment, and, in cardiology, contrast-enhanced studies are used to investigate heart function and physiology. An increasing use of diagnostic ultrasound is to provide the first photograph for baby's album-in the form of a souvenir or keepsake scan that might be taken as part of a routine investigation, or during a visit to an independent high-street 'boutique'. It is therefore important to ensure that any benefit accrued from these applications outweighs any accompanying risk, and to evaluate the existing ultrasound bio-effect and epidemiology literature with this in mind. This review considers the existing laboratory and epidemiological evidence about the safety of diagnostic ultrasound and puts it in the context of current clinical usage.

At elevated intensities, ultrasound can potentially cause localized heating depending on the tissue structure.
“At these elevated intensities, ultrasound can potentially cause localized heating depending on the tissue structure.”
From Comparative analysis of energy transfer mechanisms for neural implants (2024) · cites this paper as Tel Haar, 2011
The risk of localized heating arises from the interaction of ultrasound waves with tissues, where vibration of molecules, especially in denser tissues, can lead to an increase in temperature.
“This risk arises from the interaction of ultrasound waves with tissues, where the vibration of molecules, especially in denser tissues, can lead to an increase in temperature (Tel Haar, 2011; Proto et al., 2022).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
