Which component stores memory as binary numbers?

• A. Digital Memory
• B. Digital Scan Converter
• C. Analog Memory
• D. Scan Converter

Answer: (A)

Memory stored as binary numbers is what digital memory does. In ultrasound systems, digital memory keeps data as bits—0s and 1s—within digital storage like RAM or flash, which makes it stable, accurate, and easy to process. Analog memory, on the other hand, holds continuous signals directly and is more prone to noise and drift. Scan converters handle converting stored data into a display image, and a digital scan converter uses digital data for that task, but the explicit representation as binary digits belongs to digital memory.
