sonograph
Womb viewing device
A sonograph is a device that produces visual representations of sound waves, showing frequency, intensity, and duration over time.
In medicine, the term often refers to ultrasound imaging equipment that uses sound waves to create pictures of internal body structures: The technician used a sonograph to examine the fetus.
The resulting image is a sonogram.
