Development and Application of Piezoelectric Materials for Ultrasound Generation and Detection

Amir Manbachi, R.S.C. Cobbold · 1 Nov 2011

The piezoelectric effect and its converse are the primary means used in biomedical ultrasound for converting acoustical energy into electrical energy and vice versa. Piezoelectricity has found many bioengineering applications ranging from ultrasound imaging and therapeutics, to piezoelectric surgery and microelectromechanical systems, and to biomedical implants with associated energy harvesting. Because of its fundamental importance…

Fetal Size and Dating: Charts Recommended for Clinical Obstetric Practice

Pam Loughna, Lyn S. Chitty, Tony Evans et al. · 1 Aug 2009

Dating measurements are used to confirm the postmenstrual dates (if known) or to estimate the gestational age (GA) of the fetus when the menstrual history is unknown or unreliable. Normally the earliest technically satisfactory measurement will be the most accurate for dating purposes. Once the gestational age has been assigned, later measurements should be used…

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders in ultrasound: Can you reduce risk?

Gill Harrison, Allison Harris · 30 Jun 2015

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders are a common cause of pain and sickness absence for ultrasound practitioners. This article aims to provide background information about factors increasing the chance of developing work-related musculoskeletal disorders and potential ways to reduce risk. Factors influencing ultrasound professionals' likelihood of developing work-related musculoskeletal disorders include poor posture, repetitive movements, transducer pressure…

Morphological and functional relationships with ultrasound measured muscle thickness of the lower extremity: a brief review

Takashi Abe, Jeremy P. Loenneke, Robert S. Thiebaud · 29 May 2015

Ultrasound is a potential method for assessing muscle size of the extremity and trunk. In a large muscle, however, a single image from portable ultrasound measures only muscle thickness (MT), not anatomical muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) or muscle volume (MV). Thus, it is important to know whether MT is related to anatomical CSA and MV…

Ultrasound template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Ultrasound format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Ultrasound template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official SAGE format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Ultrasound use?
Ultrasound uses Author–year (Harvard) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B. and Lee, C. (2023) 'A representative article title', Ultrasound, 12(3), pp. 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Ultrasound?
No. DocuGuru generates the sagej LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a SAGE-ready Ultrasound document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Ultrasound template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Ultrasound format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Ultrasound?
Ultrasound is a multidisciplinary journal published by SAGE. DocuGuru's Ultrasound template matches SAGE's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Ultrasound PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Ultrasound template (the sagej class) that is ready to submit to SAGE, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Ultrasound template cost?
You can start writing in the Ultrasound template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Ultrasound PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
