Understanding AIA TMT, 2D ECHO, USG(Pelvis & Abd) & Chest X - Ray
What is AIA TMT, 2D ECHO, USG(Pelvis & Abd) & Chest X - Ray?
The AIA TMT, 2D ECHO, USG(Pelvis & Abd) & Chest X - Ray is a comprehensive radiology assessment that provides insights into different aspects of your health. A whole abdomen ultrasound examines your organs like the liver, kidneys, pancreas, and gallbladder and helps detect abnormalities like stones, tumors, etc; chest X-ray captures detailed images of the heart, lungs, and chest bones and helps diagnose conditions such as pneumonia, rib fractures, etc; electrocardiography (ECG) test helps diagnose heart diseases and evaluate heart valves function; treadmill test (TMT) assesses how well your heart function under physical stress and helps detect heart conditions such as arrhythmias, etc. These non-invasive tests provide important information to your doctor for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning based on your individual health needs.

Contains 4 testsUltrasound Whole Abdomen
USG (Ultrasound sonography) technology enables rapid visualization of the abdominal internal organs and structures from the outside of the body. This test records the size, shape, structure, and movement of the internal organs such as the liver, kidneys, intestines, pancreas, gallbladder, spleen, and the abdominal cavity blood vessels. This test identifies abnormalities like tumors, cysts, stones, fluid collection, and evidence of infection or inflammation in these organs. Through the image capture of real-time images, the Ultrasound Whole Abdomen test monitors the abdominal vessels' blood flow, aiding in the diagnosis of liver disease, kidney pathology, and other gastrointestinal ailments.
The USG machine includes a computer console, a video monitor, and a plug-in transducer (a little hand-held device similar to a microphone). The transducer is placed on the skin, and the sound waves travel through the body to the organs and structures inside. The sound waves rebound through the organs as an echo and go back to the transducer, which then interprets the reflected sound waves and produces images of the organs or tissues. Physicians interpret these images to identify abnormalities and order proper treatment if necessary.

Echo (Echocardiography)
The Echo (Echocardiography) is a radiology procedure utilizing ultrasound technology to visualize the heart and related structures. It helps in evaluating the overall function of the heart. The test measures the size, shape, and motion of the heart's chambers and valves and blood circulation through the heart. It assists in the identification of abnormalities such as disorders of the valves, heart muscle disease, fluid around the heart, and other structural problems. By capturing real time images of the heart, echo gives insights into the heart's overall health and helps doctors formulate effective treatment plans.
The machine for the echo test contains a computer console, video monitor, and a handheld transducer. The transducer is positioned on the chest, and the ultrasound waves move through the body, reflecting from the heart tissues. The echoes are picked up by the transducer and translated into images by the computer, enabling doctors to diagnose heart disorders.
