Ultrasound (sonography)
We take care of the health of the abdominal organs
Ultrasound examination of the abdominal organs and intestines is completely painless. Ultrasound examination (sonography) of the abdominal cavity can detect many diseases of the liver, kidneys, gall bladder, pancreas, spleen and intestines. The principle of abdominal sonography is the same as any other sonographic examination. A transducer sends out sound waves. They are modified by the tissue in the abdominal cavity and then received back by the transducer. With the help of an amplifier, these waves can be processed and displayed on a screen.
Preparation
for Ultrasound
Normally no preparation is necessary for the ultrasound. Occasionally, in preparation for an upper abdominal ultrasound, you will be given a medication that you must take a few hours before the ultrasound examination to “deflate”.
