Ultrasound imaging, also called ultrasound scanning or sonography is a method of obtaining images from inside the human body using high-frequency sound waves. The reflected sound wave echoes are recorded and displayed as a real-time visual image on a computer screen. No ionizing radiation (X-ray) is involved in ultrasound imaging. Obstetric ultrasound refers to the specialized use of sound waves to visualize and determine the condition of a pregnant woman along with her fetus.

Ultrasound is a useful way of examining many of the body’s internal organs, including the heart, liver, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas, kidneys and bladder. Because ultrasound images are captured in real time, they can show movement of internal tissues and organs that enables physicians to see blood flow as well as heart valve functions. This can help us diagnose a variety of heart conditions and access damage after a heart attack or other illness.

A new class of premium high resolution ultrasound for obstetrics and gynecology that meets the needs of today’s most demanding practices through:

• Powerful image processing - Different approach to imaging in OB/GYN
• System intelligence - AIUS* makes intelligent features possible in OB/GYN
• Advanced transducers- The power of pure wave in diagnostic imaging
• Ergonomic design - Tailored to the needs of OB/GYN users
• Efficient workflow- Designed for methodical work

Ultrasound is a painless, noninvasive, fast and easily tolerated. Ultrasound imaging is usually completed within 15 to 30 minutes. Certified sonographer applies a warm water-based gel to the body part being examined. The sonographer then uses a small hand-held device called a transducer, about the size of a computer mouse, to perform the exam, gently moving it back and forth over the area of study until the desired images are captured. There is usually no discomfort during the exam. You will be free to leave the diagnostic centre and resume normal activities as soon as you are ready after your test.

You will lay face-up on an exam table that can be tilted or moved. Patients may be turned to either side to improve the quality of the images

Extremely safe and does not use radiation. Ultrasound gives a clear picture of soft tissues that do not show up well on x-ray images. It provides real-time imaging, making it a good tool for guiding minimally invasive procedures like

• Whole body USG
• Arthritis
• Obstetrics and Gynecology
• Kidney functions
• Internal Bleeding
• Heart Functions
• Blood Flow
• Blockages
• Infections
• Neuro Sonogram
• Echo

Your particular exam preparation will be provided at the time of scheduling. On the basis of type of exam, you will be instructed on what you may eat or drink beforehand. No medical and no medication restrictions unless directed otherwise by your physician. Comfortable loose fitting cotton clothing with no jewelry associated. Before your procedure, you may be asked about anything that might create a health risk or interfere with sonography. You may also check with our doctor to review your medical conditions.
