FAQ

An ultrasound is a medical imaging test that uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of internal organs and structures in the body. During the test, a small handheld device called a transducer is placed on the skin, which emits sound waves and receives the echoes that bounce back. These echoes are then processed by a computer to create images of the area being examined.

Yes, ultrasound is generally considered a safe and non-invasive imaging technique. It does not involve exposure to radiation, unlike other imaging tests like X-rays and CT scans. However, as with any medical test, there are some risks and potential complications, which your healthcare provider can discuss with you.

There are many different types of ultrasound exams, which can be used to examine different parts of the body. Some common types of ultrasound exams include abdominal ultrasound, pelvic ultrasound, obstetric ultrasound, and cardiac ultrasound.

During an ultrasound exam, you will typically lie down on an exam table, and a gel will be applied to the skin over the area being examined. The transducer will then be moved over the skin, and images will be displayed on a monitor. The exam is typically painless and takes about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the type of exam being performed.

The preparation for an ultrasound exam will depend on the type of exam being performed. In some cases, you may need to fast for a certain period of time beforehand or drink fluids to help fill the bladder. Your healthcare provider will provide specific instructions on how to prepare for your exam.

Ultrasound is a versatile imaging technique that can be used to detect a wide range of medical conditions. However, it is not always the best imaging test for every condition. Your healthcare provider will determine which imaging test is best for your specific needs.

Generally, there are no significant risks or side effects associated with ultrasound. However, in rare cases, the gel used during the exam may cause skin irritation or an allergic reaction. Additionally, in some cases, an ultrasound exam may detect a false-positive result, which can lead to further unnecessary testing or treatment.

The timing of your ultrasound results will depend on the type of exam being performed and the policies of the healthcare provider or facility. In some cases, you may receive preliminary results immediately after the exam, while in other cases, it may take a few days for the results to be reviewed and interpreted by a radiologist. Your healthcare provider can provide more information about when you can expect to receive your results.
