ABSTRACT:
A medical ultrasound training apparatus comprises a simulated body cavity adapted to contain a number of elements simulating the ultrasonic response characteristics of internal human anatomy. Simulated body fluid fills the cavity and surrounds and suspends the elements therein and a skin simulating membrane covers the cavity. A medical trainee performs ultrasound examination on the apparatus which produces ultrasound images similar to those produced by a live patient thereby providing the trainee with valuable experience in applying and analyzing the results of the ultrasound examination.
