Ultrasound Scans
Ultrasound scans are a safe and painless imaging technique that uses sound waves to create detailed pictures of your organs, muscles, and other internal tissues. Medpoint Radiology offers a comprehensive range of ultrasound services to help diagnose a wide variety of medical conditions.
Here's a breakdown of the different types of ultrasound scans we offer:
• Pelvic Ultrasound: This scan examines the organs in your lower abdomen and pelvis, including the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, bladder, and prostate (in men). It can be used to diagnose fibroids, ovarian cysts, pelvic pain, and monitor pregnancy.
• Musculoskeletal Ultrasound: This scan focuses on muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints. It helps identify tears, strains, sprains, and other musculoskeletal conditions.
• Vascular Doppler Ultrasound: This specialized ultrasound uses sound waves to assess blood flow within your arteries and veins. It can help diagnose blood clots, blockages, and abnormal blood flow patterns.
• Transvaginal Ultrasound: This type of pelvic ultrasound uses a transducer inserted into the vagina for a closer look at the uterus, ovaries, and cervix. It is often used for early pregnancy evaluations and diagnosing certain gynaecological conditions.
• Breast Ultrasound: This scan can be used alongside a mammogram to further evaluate lumps or other breast abnormalities.
• Scrotum Ultrasound: This scan examines the testicles for swelling, pain, or masses.
• Echocardiography: Examines the Heart’s size and function, valve health, blood flow and wall thickness.
