Ultrasound

What is an Ultrasound?

Ultrasounds are extremely useful in examining many of the body’s organs, which makes it a valuable diagnostic tool. It’s like a camera that can see under your skin without making any incisions. It helps to diagnose problems of internal organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, thyroid gland, lymph nodes, ovaries, testes, kidneys, bladder and appendix.

When Do Patients Need an Ultrasound?

It is used in many situations. The way the ultrasound bounces back from different tissues can help determine the size, shape, and consistency of organs, structures, and abnormalities. An ultrasound scan is also routine for pregnant women, as it helps monitor the growth of an unborn child.

Doctors use ultrasounds to diagnose conditions such as:

  • Infections – ultrasounds can capture a patient’s blood flow which can indicate an infection.
  • Cardiovascular issues – ultrasounds can find narrowed vessels or blockages to blood flow.
  • Tumors and cysts – an ultrasound can show dense areas of tissue such as tumors or cysts.

Most ultrasound procedures are fast and painless and are completed within 30 to 60 minutes.

Preparation varies by type. For liver or gallbladder scan, you may need to fast for several hours before the ultrasound. For those receiving images during pregnancy, drink plenty of water and don’t urinate for some time before the test. A full bladder allows the scan to produce better images of the uterus.
