Abdomen Scan
Ultrasound is a painless and safe procedure in which sound waves are bounced off internal organs of the body, creating an image for the radiologist or other physician to use for diagnostic purposes.
Ultrasounds produce exact pictures of soft tissue while registering internal motions of the body such as heartbeat and blood flow. Ultrasounds allow physicians to see internal processes in realtime, ideal for both locating abnormal tissue and monitoring activities such as fetal development.
