Ultrasound imaging uses sound waves to produce diagnostic images. The technology of Ultrasound answers many medical questions and concerns.

In Ultrasound procedures,  a small amount of gel is applied on the skin then transducer sends out harmless high-frequency sound waves into the body.  Some exams may use different transducers (with different capabilities) during one single exam.

Exam Duration: most exams take 15 - 30 minutes.

Preparations depend on the type of exam. For some scans like abdomen, the patient needs to fast for 9 - 12 hrs. Other scans such as pelvis and KUB, the patient needs to drink water.
