The first application of ultrasonics in medical diagnosis was attempted with a material testing apparatus. It is a pulse method which has remained essentually unchanged till the present day. New developments are primarily concerned with improvement of the deep and lateral resolution of the diagnostic apparatus. Useful improvements have already beeh achieved. It is realistic to look for new improvements with the application of modern electronics to this field.
