Abstract

This paper is a work of survey to various diseases of human body being diagnosed through ultrasonography (USG) method, and later an introduction to modern medical database management system for the same. Human anatomy requires a confined methodology for its study and abnormalities identification. Diagnosis through imaging technology has been a revolutionary discovery in modern times. Among the various medical imaging technologies, USG is usually preferred. Ultrasound machines with the help of its transducers are able to image almost all body parts and hence diagnose almost all types of diseases. Starting with the introduction to USG, working principle, and advantages over other imaging methodologies, this paper covers near about hundreds of diseases being diagnosed through USG method, along with its diagnostic features, affecting body parts, and operating modes. Later in this paper, a modern algorithm, called MongoDB, is introduced for hospital information management system (HIMS) as an efficient database of patients and diseases.
