WHAT IS AN ULTRASOUND?
Real-Time Imaging, Without Radiation
Ultrasound uses sound waves to create real-time images of structures inside the body. A sonographer moves a small handheld probe over the area being examined, with gel applied to the skin to help create clear images.
Ultrasound does not use radiation and is generally painless and non-invasive. It can provide valuable information about organs, soft tissue, blood flow and developing pregnancies.
Preparation depends on the area being scanned. You may be asked to fast, drink water or avoid going to the toilet before your appointment. Our team will provide the right instructions when you book.
WHEN MIGHT I NEED AN ULTRASOUND?
Detailed Imaging for Many Areas of Care
Your doctor or specialist may refer you for an ultrasound to investigate symptoms, assess a known condition or monitor your health over time.
Ultrasound is particularly useful for examining soft tissue and blood flow in real time.
Ultrasound may be used to assess:
- Abdominal pain or internal organs
- Pelvic concerns, including the uterus and ovaries
- Pregnancy and fetal development
- Blood flow in arteries and veins
- Lumps, swelling or soft tissue concerns
- Muscles, tendons and joints
- The thyroid, breast, kidneys or bladder
- Testicular or scrotal concerns
Your referring doctor will determine the most suitable ultrasound examination for your needs.
