Ultrasonography

Ultrasonography, commonly known as an ultrasound scan, uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the inside of the body. A device called a transducer sends sound waves that bounce off tissues and organs, and these echoes are captured to produce real-time images. This non-invasive procedure helps doctors examine organs like the heart, liver, or kidneys, monitor pregnancies, or diagnose medical conditions. It’s safe, painless, and doesn’t involve radiation, making it a valuable tool for visualizing internal structures and guiding treatment decisions.
