pictures of the old B-scannersFrom: Diana (dross38040@yahoo.com)Mon Aug 19 21:38:08 2002
Hi, folks I began work in this field in 1983. The changes to our equipment are unbelievable to most new grads and students. I found myself trying to explain how I stood on one foot to perform a b-scan (thank goodness I had dance training!) and also trying to explain compound scanning, and how we actually "created" pictures in those days. I was trying to explain how ultrasound is a combination of art and science and what kind of coordination it takes now and what it took then. So I'm here to ask two things. First of all, I was wondering if people had some really good pictures of the later B-scanners (Picker and Rohe, I guess are the ones I remember) and maybe some of the early real-time scanners and transducers. I was trying to describe the early Diasonics and ATL real-time units with the offset probes... Does anyone have any pictures they could post? Or are they here and I'm just not finding them? Next thing...I remember we started this group with a discussion about how things were when we started working. Every sentence began with "when I started...." and ended with "...there was no _____" (gel, or real time or color, or whatever). I have part of that list, but I know I don't have the full thread. Did anyone save that thread? I thought that thread really put things in perspective. Maybe I'm getting old, but I just can't help but marvel sometimes at how much has changed in a short time. Thanks,
-- Diana
