Breast Ultrasound Image Optimization Registry Review Practice Questions. Studying for your ARDMS Breast Ultrasound Registry Exam? Learning Breast Ultrasound on the job? Here's 25 questions to test your knowledge of image optimization for a Breast Ultrasound exam. Discover the 3 brightness controls on an Ultrasound machine, the difference between them and when you should use each one. We'll explore focal zones, the near field and far field and how many foci should be used during an Ultrasound exam of the Breast. Learn how to optimize frequency, gain, TGC, output power, transducer pressure, focal zones and depth. Discussion of solitary vs multiple focal zones, how to optimize for each and their corresponding effect on frame rate. Test out your readiness for the ARDMS Breast Ultrasound exam.

Hi! I'm Michelle Macauley. Welcome to my channel- Sonography Minutes!
I've been a Sonographer for over 15 years and I also teach Ultrasound at the College level, where I've built a Breast Ultrasound course for both Mammographers and Sonographers.
My specialty is Breast Ultrasound, though I have experience in multiple types of Ultrasound.
I hold ARDMS certifications in Breast, Abdomen and OBGYN, and I'm also an RVT (Registered Vascular Technologist).
Join me as I cover all things Ultrasound!
