              Ultrasound

              Ultrasound, also called sonography, is an exam that uses sound waves to obtain images of the inside of the body. These high-frequency sound waves are far above the range of human hearing. Sound waves are aimed at a particular area of the body. The different body tissues reflect the waves back in varying degrees. The echoed waves are recorded and displayed as a continuous real-time image on a computer monitor.
              Ultrasound relies on sound waves rather than radiation to produce images, so it is ideal in many settings. It can be used to look at many organs and body parts to check for disease or abnormalities. It is also used during pregnancy to check the development of the fetus. Since the images are real-time, ultrasound has the benefit of allowing the radiologist to see organs and tissue in motion. This can be particularly useful for assessing the function of body parts and as imaging guidance when performing other procedures, such as a biopsy.

              Some of the many conditions that ultrasound is used to diagnose are:

              • Breast abnormalities — Link to u/s guided breast biopsy
              • Cysts
              • Gallstones
              • Hernias
              • Infection
              • Kidney Stones
              • Pain
              • Enlarged thyroid or thyroid lump
              • Tumors
              • Uterine Fibroids
