Complete Table 10.1 by stating, for each wave type: - the process by which the wave is produced - whether the wave that is detected and used to form the image is the wave that has been absorbed, reflected or transmitted by the internal body structure.
For one kind of wave travelling through tissue, the wave has $72\%$ of its original intensity after moving through $6.2\,\text{cm}$ of the tissue. Calculate the linear attenuation coefficient $\mu$ of the tissue for this wave.
A second wave of the same type as in part (b)(i) travels through $9.3\,\text{cm}$ of the same tissue. Calculate the percentage of the wave’s initial intensity that is attenuated by the tissue.
