    Artifacts

    Ultrasound examinations are associated with a diversity of ultrasound artifacts and can be encountered during the examination.  Unfortunately, these artifacts cannot all be discussed in this course.
    Two important artifacts are explained here: acoustic shadow and posterior sound transmission. Even though these are artifacts, they are valuable in practice.
