About Ultrasound Scan Test

Ultrasound  is the safest way of looking inside the human body. It involves the use of high-frequency sound waves which are harmless to the human body. At Parashar’s Diagnostic Centre, we have highly trained ultrasound specialists working on the highest-end equipment available in the world today.

Ultrasound scanning can help in almost any domain of disease identification. Ultrasound can be used to image many areas of the body including the pelvis and abdomen, the musculoskeletal system, the breast, the male reproductive system, the kidney, the thyroid, and salivary glands, the gall bladder, the pancreas and the developing foetus, liver, neck etc. Ultrasound is a valuable tool and in the right hands can clear out most doubts related to the diagnostic queries that we are faced with.

Ultrasound uses sonography principles to image internal organs. A radiologist uses a probe to scan the affected area and produce images on the computer.

Gel is applied to your skin over the area being examined. It helps prevent air pockets, which can block the sound waves that create the images. This safe, water-based gel is easy to remove from skin and, if needed, clothing.

A trained radiologist presses a small, hand-held device (transducer) against the area being studied and moves it as needed to capture the images. The transducer sends sound waves into your body, collects the ones that bounce back and sends them to a computer, which creates the images.

 

Sometimes, ultrasounds are done inside your body. In this case, the transducer is attached to a probe that’s inserted into a natural opening in your body. Examples include:

  • Transrectal ultrasound: This test creates images of the prostate by placing a special transducer into the rectum.
  • Transvaginal ultrasound: A special transducer is gently inserted into the vagina to look at the uterus and ovaries.

Ultrasound is usually painless. However, you may experience mild discomfort as the sonographer guides the transducer over your body, especially if you’re required to have a full bladder, or inserts it into your body.

A typical ultrasound exam takes from 15 minutes to an hour (depending on type of study)

Typically, you should plan for an hour for a CT scan. Most of that time is for preparation. The scan itself takes between 10 and 30 minutes or less. Generally, you can resume your activities after a healthcare provider says it is safe to do so — usually after they complete the scan and verify clear images.

Ultrasound is a highly valuable diagnostic tool and it is particularly useful during pregnancy because it is completely safe for you and your baby. Some of the useful indications for use during pregnancy include:

  • for dating purposes and to accurately determine your due date
  • to ascertain the number of babies present
  • to check for any bleeding early in the pregnancy
  • to check the position of the placenta
  • to assess the growth of the baby and its general well-being
  • to provide information about the anatomy of the baby and check for possible abnormalities
  • not all possible birth abnormalities are reliably diagnosed using ultrasound and all scan results should be interpreted within the limitations of the test

Ultrasounds are simple, safe procedures which do not require the use of radiation to develop images of internal parts of the body. Ultrasounds can be used to examine many parts of the body including the:

  • Blood vessels
  • Pelvis
  • Heart
  • Musculoskeletal system
  • Abdomen
  • Other soft tissue organs

According to the PC-PNDT Act, performing a pregnancy ultrasound without a valid prescription having the doctor’s DMC/HMC/MCI registration number, phone number and other details is forbidden.
