Ultrasound

An ultrasound or sonogram is a safe and painless test utilizing sound waves to produce images of the internal structures of the body. A clear, non-staining gel is applied to the skin. Sound waves are transmitted and received by a transducer moved back and forth over the area being examined.

Ultrasound imaging gives physicians a safe, non-invasive look at internal organs, blood vessels, and structures throughout the body. Beyond fetal development, other applications for ultrasound include:

• Thyroid

• Kidneys

• Pelvis

• Abdominal Organs

• Gallbladder

• Prostate & Testicles

• Arterial structures (upper & lower)

• Venous exams (DVT)
