← ScienceWhich outcome results from increased water molecule density during ultrasonic wave propagation in tissue?
A)Increased acoustic impedance mismatch✓
B)Decreased thermal energy absorption
C)Enhanced wave transmission through lipids
D)Reduced shear wave propagation velocity
💡 Explanation
Applying ultrasound pulses increases water molecule density which causes increased acoustic empedance mismatch because of difference in properties reduces energy transmission from initial probe. Impedence mismatched interfaces therefore reflect ultrasound. This results in decreased energy able pass, therefore A, rather than others, results.
