What is an Ultrasound?
An ultrasound is an imaging test that makes use of sound waves to create a (sonogram) picture of organs, tissues, and other structures inside the body. Ultrasounds do not use any radiation unlike x-rays. An ultrasound can also show the body parts in motion, such as a heartbeat or blood flow through blood vessels.
It is generally non-invasive. Common reasons for an ultrasound scan in Chennai include investigations of an individual’s abdominal and pelvic organs, vascular and musculoskeletal systems, and to check fetal development during pregnancy.
There are two main categories of ultrasounds: diagnostic ultrasound and pregnancy ultrasound.
- Diagnostic Ultrasound is used to view and give information about other internal parts of the body. These include the blood vessels, heart, liver, kidneys, bladder, and female reproductive organs.
- Pregnancy Ultrasound is used to know the details of an unborn baby. This ultrasound scan in Chennai provides information about a baby’s development, growth, and overall health
An ultrasound can be used in several ways, depending on the type of ultrasound besides which part of the body is being checked.
Diagnostic ultrasound may be used to:
- Find out if the blood flows at a normal rate and level.
- Check if there is an issue with the heart structure
- Check for blockages in the gallbladder.
- Check the thyroid gland for non-cancerous or cancer growths.
- Check for abnormalities in the pelvis, abdomen, and kidneys.
- Help guide a biopsy procedure.
In women, diagnostic ultrasound scanning may be used to:
