Geocache Description:


Ultrasound was first used for clinical purposes in 1956 in Glasgow. Obstetrician Ian Donald and engineer Tom Brown developed the first prototype systems based on an instrument used to detect industrial flaws in ships. They perfected its clinical use, and by the end of the 1950s, ultrasound was routinely used in Glasgow hospitals. It was well into the 1970s before it became widely used in North American hospitals. By the end of the 20th century, ultrasound imaging had become routine in maternity clinics throughout the developed world. The technology has undergone extensive development over the past 20 years has probably reached more or less the pinnacle of its acuity. The trend now is for expectant parents to learn the baby’s gender during their mid-term ultrasound. Such is the case with my daughter, who is expecting her second child.
