Ultrasound Gel

Ultrasound gel is a specially formulated conductive material applied to the skin during ultrasound imaging. Its purpose is to eliminate air pockets between the ultrasound probe and the skin, ensuring the sound waves travel efficiently into the body. This improves the clarity and quality of the images captured, aiding in accurate diagnosis. The gel is typically water-based, non-irritating, and easy to clean off after the procedure, making the process comfortable for patients and effective for healthcare providers.
