Abstract
There are many customs which have developed for ultrasound examination of different body systems and within different areas of ultrasound. The principles of preparation and image optimisation remain much the same regardless of which part of the body is being examined. This chapter elaborates on how the ultrasound image should be orientated and optimised.
