General Ultrasound
Ultrasound refers to sound waves with a high frequency. During an ultrasound exam, these sound waves create images on a screen that display the inside of your body, allowing areas of pain, swelling or infection to be directly assessed in real-time.
Abdominal
Abdominal ultrasounds are effective in accessing the liver, spleen, pancreas, aorta, gall bladder, bile ducts, kidneys, and spleen.
Your health professional may request this test to investigate abdominal pain or other abdominal symptoms.
During the abdominal ultrasound, warm gel is applied to your abdomen before the imaging technician places the probe on the abdominal surface and applies gentle pressure to obtain the accurate and clear images.
Renal
Renal ultrasounds are effective in assessing kidneys, ureters, bladder and detecting cysts, tumours, abscesses, obstructions, fluid collection, and infection within or around the kidneys.
During the renal ultrasound, warm gel is applied to your abdomen before the imaging technician places the probe on the abdominal surface and applies gentle pressure to accurate and clear images.
Musculoskeletal
Musculoskeletal ultrasounds are used to examine muscles, tendons, and ligaments throughout the body.
Your health professional may request musculoskeletal ultrasound if you have experienced an injury following trauma or investigate causes of chronic musculoskeletal pain.
During the musculoskeletal ultrasound, warm gel is applied to the joint before the imaging technician places the probe on the skin surface and applies gentle pressure to obtain accurate and clear images.
Thyroid
A thyroid ultrasound may be requested by your health professional if a thyroid function test is abnormal, access an underactive or overactive thyroid gland, or to investigate a growth.
During the thyroid ultrasound, warm gel is applied to your neck before the imaging technician places the probe on the skin surface and applies pressure to obtain accurate and clear images.
