Ultrasound, or sonography, is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses sound waves to create detailed images of internal organs, tissues, and blood flow. It is widely used for diagnostic, monitoring, and screening purposes.
Note: Ultrasound is safe, painless, and does not use radiation — making it ideal for pregnant women and regular health monitoring.
- Early detection of diseases
- Monitoring fetal growth and development
- Assisting in guided procedures (like biopsies)
- Assessing organ structure and blood flow
Depending on the type of ultrasound, patients may need to fast or have a full bladder. The procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes and provides immediate results for your doctor’s review.
