Ultrasound, also known as sonography, is a safe, painless, and non-invasive imaging technique that uses sound waves to create pictures of the inside of your body. At Elite Diagnostics, we offer advanced ultrasound services to help you and your doctor understand your health better and make informed decisions about your care.
What is an Ultrasound?
Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to capture real-time images of organs, tissues, and blood flow within the body. Unlike X-rays or CT scans, it doesn’t use radiation, making it a safe choice for people of all ages, including pregnant women and children.
Why Might You Need an Ultrasound?
Doctors recommend ultrasounds for various medical reasons, such as:
- Pregnancy Monitoring: To check fetal development, growth, and overall health.
- Abdominal Issues: To investigate pain or abnormalities in the liver, kidneys, gallbladder, or pancreas.
- Pelvic Health: To assess the uterus, ovaries, or prostate.
- Soft Tissue Concerns: To examine lumps, swelling, or infections.
- Vascular Health: To check blood flow and detect clots or blockages.
What to Expect During the Procedure?
An ultrasound is quick and simple. Here’s what happens:
- A trained sonographer applies a special gel to the skin in the area being examined.
- A handheld device called a transducer is gently moved over the area, capturing live images on a monitor.
- The process typically takes 15–30 minutes, and you can resume your daily activities immediately afterward.
