Ultrasonic medical imaging provides a low cost and non-invasive tool to look inside the human body. It is one of the most popular imaging tools, second only to conventional X-ray imaging in the number of clinical procedures performed. It has various advantages over conventional X-ray, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, because it does not utilise harmful electromagnetic radiation, is non-invasive, easy to perform, cost effective, capable of providing images in real time, and provides good soft tissue differentiation [1].
