Abstract
Because diagnostic ultrasound is becoming widely recognized as a valuable diagnostic aid, its potential for producing toxicity must be considered. The current modes of usage are considered with regard to their dosage parameters and to the physical and biological effects of such dosages. The reported bio‐effects involved in future applications are briefly presented and the necessity for a proper epidemiological survey is stressed.Keywords
