Answer :

Pauacost

Answer:

This statement is true.

Explanation:

The ultrasound gel is a conductive medium, meaning it helps create a bond between the transducer and the skin.

Ultrasound waves cannot travel well enough through the air which is why the gel is applied in order to reduce air space between the skin and transducer, thus allowing a good quality image to be developed.
