Ultrasound machine
Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Begin by understanding the function of each device listed in the problem. A glucometer measures blood glucose levels, a stethoscope is used to listen to heart and lung sounds, and a sphygmomanometer measures blood pressure. None of these devices are designed to view internal organs.
Step 2: Recognize that an ultrasound machine is a medical imaging device that uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of internal organs, tissues, and structures. This makes it suitable for viewing internal organs.
Step 3: Recall that ultrasound technology is non-invasive and commonly used for diagnostic purposes, such as examining the heart, liver, kidneys, and monitoring fetal development during pregnancy.
Step 4: Compare the functions of the listed devices and identify that the ultrasound machine is the only device capable of producing visual images of internal organs.
Step 5: Conclude that the correct answer is the ultrasound machine, as it aligns with the requirement to view internal organs.
