2 The successful application of the ultrasonic-pulse technique and t h e echo-ranging p r i n c i p l e t o underwater detection and ranging, and t o t h e l o c a l i z a t i o n of flaws i n metals (Firestone, 1946) prompted investigations by the rjaval Research I n s t i t u t e, 33ethesda, Maryland (Ludwig, 1950) concerning t h e use of an analogous technique f o r diagnostic purposes i n medicine and surgery Prior t o t h i s time, Schmidt e t a l, (1928) had investigated t h e frequencies of sound waves t h a t cause damage t o t i s s u e s In t h e i r work, they indicated t h a t continuous exposure t o vibrations of 8,000 t o 20,000 cycles per second produced t i s s u e damage They point out t h a t t h i s damage was produced a s a r e s u l t of continuous exposure r a t h e r than pulsed exposure, which i s t h e type used i n diagnostic work Porter (1939) and Gregg (1950) f e l t t h a t t h e damage produced may be due t o t h e heat produced or t o a chemical factor Porter reported diminished mental c a p a b i l i t i e s i n a wcman who was exposed t o 16,000 cycles per second of an ultrasonic source f o r an hour The e f f e c t s were reversible when she was removed from t h e ultrasonic chamber French, Wild, and Neal (1951) reported t h a t when frequencies were in the neighborhood of 15 mc, p e r second, modified t o pulse one-half millionth of a second, no damage m s caused, The vibrations were interrupted i n t h e apparatus so t h a t t h e experimental animal (rabbit) received 7 1/2 vibrations, skipped 1298 vibrations, and so on This had t h e double e f f e c t of (1) greatly reducing t h e power of t h e apparatus, and (2) permitting t h e heat produced by t h e vibrations t o d i s s i p a t e i t s e l f p r i o r t o the next series of vibrations, -I Wild and Neal (1951) reported no harmful e f f e c t s when t i s s u e s were subjected t o ultrasonic waves of t h e energy used i n ultrasonography They noted t h a t t i s s u e s of different texture gave d i f f e r e n t ultrasonograms Their work, as was t r u e f o r most of t h e other early work i n sonography, was of a single dimension,i e giving a depth penetration only, indicating echoes a t various depths where materials of d i f f e r e n t sound impedance or resistance were encountered T h i s type of technique has been referred t o a s t h e A scan, Values of t h e c h a r a c t e r i s t i c impedance of various t i s s u e s were calculated by Ludwig in 1950 These data were used t o calculate ref l e c t i o n coefficients a t interfaces, such a s those between dissimilar t i s sues and between foreign bodies and tissues, Sound velocity was measured i n c e r t a i n human and animal t i s s u e s Specific gravity of each t i s s u e was measured, and t h e c h a r a c t e r i s t i c acoustical impedance calculated frcm t h e velocity i n t e n s i t y data Sound velocity through t i s s u e has been measured a t frequencies of 125 and 25 mc, by Ludwig, using a pulsed method The e f f e c t of fiber d i r e c t i o n of t h e t i s s u e s on t h e sound velocity was i n v e s t i gated with beef muscle No difference was found i n energy values when the muscle was traversed perpendicular t o the long a x i s of t h e muscle bundle, as compared t o when it was transversed p a r a l l e l with t h e muscle bundles This work indicated t h a t t h e r e was v a r i a t i o n i n t h e velocity of sound waves between brain, l i v e r, kidney, and spleen of t h e dog and hog, and f o r beef muscle Wild (1950), working on an immediate post-mortem sample of small i n t e s t i n e of a dog, could determine t h e layers of t i s s u e, when t h e material v a s folded so t h a t t h e r e were no a i r interfaces between t h e layers He concluded t h a t t h e method can be applied t o t h e detection of changes i n t i s s u e density, and discussed application f o r the detection of accessible tumors French (1951) and French, Wild, and Neal (1951) examined t h e p o s s i b i l i t y of locating sub-cortical neoplasms, a t the time of surgery, without t h e use of brain needles The ultrasonic principle upon which t h e
3 224 experiment was based was t h a t high-frequency sound waves, when driven through t i s s u e s, a r e believed t o t r a v e l a t a r a t e proportional t o t h e tissue density and e l a s t i c i t y These sound waves were r e f l e c t e d by surfaces of density or e l a s t i c i t y change, The frequency used i n t h i s experiment was 15 mc, per second Their results indicated t h a t t h e texture of t h e neoplastic cerebral t i s s u e is such that response i s approximately twice tbt of normal cerebral t i s s u e ; t h a t sub-cortical neoplasms can be located i n t h e post-mortem material by this method; and t h a t pulsed ultrasonic vibrations of t h i s frequency produce no damage in cerebral hemispheres of experimental animals, H o ~ r yand B l i s s (1952), worhing with an ultrasonic device which gave a two-dimension impression, o r 'B" scan, showed t h a t t h e instrument was capable of making sof't t i s s u e s t r u c t u r e s v i s i b l e i n a manner which will be useful f o r diagnostic purposes, Working with fresh specimens of g a l l bladder and l i v e r from l i v i n g subjects, they noted t h a t their results were f a r superior t o those obtained when working with Formalin-fixed specimens They concluded t h a t hardened tissue apparently takes on difperent ultrasonic properties, Howry's device, which presents a p i c t u r e of t h e object r a t h e r than a wave, made i n t e r p r e t a t i o n of t h e d i f f e r e n t i a t i o n of materials e a s i e r, They obtained continuous p i c t u r e s of g a l l b l a d d e r, l i v e r, forearm, neck, leg, and other p a r t s of t h e body from l i v i n g subjects, Howry, S t o t t, and Bliss (1954) presented work t h a t indicated visualization of benign and malignant tumors was possible by the use of ultrasonics In t h e kidney tissue, t h e outline of a smooth c y s t wall v a s v i s i b l e on the cathode ray tube Ep vitrq examination of a f r e s h b r e a s t specimen, which contained cancer, Indicated that t h e i n t e r f a c e s between t h e normal tissue and t h a t of t h e cancer were v i s i b l e on t h e cathode ray tube Bnprovement i n e a r l i e r equipment ( H a m y e t a l a, 1955) resulted i n p i c t u r e s t h a t shared such anatomical s t r u c t u r e s in t h e neck a s nerves, a r t e r i e s, veins, f a s c i a l planes, and muscles, Such disease processes a s c i r r h o s i s and carcinoma of the l i v e r were a l s o shuwn!the author of t h i s review would 1We t o point out that; i n t e r p r e t a t i o n of the p i c t u r e s obtained f r c j m the neck by Howry is q u i t e d i f f i c u l t, and t h a t a thorough knowledge of t h e anatorny and t i s s u e s t r u c t u r e being studied i s absolutely imperative This i s t r u e in l i v e stock evaluation Work, as well a s in technical and medical examinations A hawledge of the shape, size, and related s t r u c t u r e s of t h e muscles i n t h e beef animal is highly important, i f accurate i n t e r p r e t a t i o n of r e s u l t s i s t o be obtained A review of t h e l i t e r a t u r e i n more recent years reveals t h a t the use of ultrasonics i s spreading t o a number of new areas of research in medical science Baum and Greenwood (1960) studied t h e application of sonar and radar techniques i n ophthamology, The equipment they use operates a t a frequency of 15 mc, per second, using a '93" scan type presentation They reported using it t o detect and visualize radiolucent foreign bodies and t m o r s within the o r b i t of t h e eye They indicated t h a t t h e foreign bodies were readily located by this method, even i n l a r g e amounts of blood Research is a l s o being c a r r i e d on in examining the o r b i t a l tracings o f the eye The Journal of the American Medical Association (1960) reported t h a t D r, B Sundun of Sweden, indicated use of ultrasound in determining

6 227 From t h e standpoint of meats research, there may be an a d d i t i o n a l use of ultrasonics i n t h e estimation of kidney knob size, marbling of c e r t a i n muscles, and i n the study of t h e s i z e of bones The ideas by Frye (1958) concerning t h e use of ultrasound, a s a t o o l f o r selectively disrupting i n t r a c e l l u l a r structures, might have some p o s s i b i l i t y i n tenderness studies Since it has been shown i n some of t h e research reviewed i n t h i s paper t h a t c e r t a i n t i s s u e s have d i f f e r e n t responses t o ultrasound, it might be f e a s i b l e t o determine i f connective t i s s u e could be broken down with a c e r t a i n frequency of ultrasound without disturbing any other body t i s s u e s Indeed, it might be possible t o break down the f a t molecules so t h a t they could be r e absorbed by t h e body If t h i s were done selectively--just on t h e outside layer of f a t of t h e animal's body, f o r instance, leaving t h e marbling i n t h e meat--the consuming housewife would c e r t a i n l y be pleased!
