Across
- 4. Fluid-filled (typically anechoic with enhancement)
- 6. Particle motion in same direction as wave travel
- 7. Tissue-filled mass with internal echoes
- 10. Rectangular image format; superficial/vascular use
- 11. Detects and measures blood flow
- 15. Type of energy sound represents
- 18. Same echogenicity as reference tissue
- 19. Prefix meaning above/excessive
- 20. One cycle per second
- 21. Number of cycles per second; determines resolution vs depth
- 22. Produces strong echoes & appears bright

- 26. Returning sound wave detected by transducer
- 28. Mixed/uneven echotexture
Down
- 1. Uniform echotexture
- 2. From Latin “sonus” (sound) + Greek “graphein” (to write)
- 3. Distance from one wave peak to the next
- 5. Device that converts electricity ↔ sound in ultrasound
