Medical ultrasound and AMI are based upon the same physics. However, medical ultrasound frequencies are usually in the range of 1-5 MHz whereas AMI are 15- 300MHz. The lower frequencies are needed in the medical environment because of the need to penetrate tissue thicknesses associated with the human body. There is an inverse relationship between penetration and resolution capability (frequency).
