Know more about this test

The Ultrasound Whole Abdomen is a painless and noninvasive imaging radiology scan. It uses sound waves to create pictures of the organs inside the abdomen such as liver, kidneys, pancreas, gallbladder, intestines, and spleen. The scan helps doctors find out if there are any abnormalities or diseases in these organs. It is available at an affordable price in Gautam Buddha Nagar with our partnered labs.

The Ultrasound Whole Abdomen is advised when there are symptoms like abdominal discomfort, bloating, unwanted weight loss, swelling, recurrent abdominal infection, etc. Doctors may also recommend this test if the blood test or other test results show anything unusual or abnormal. This scan can diagnose enlargement of organs, ascites, liver disease, kidney stones, gallstones, cysts, tumors, or inflammation. Also, it is one of the safest imaging modalities during pregnancy since it does not harm either the mother or the fetus.

This scan is a safer alternative than other imaging tests such as X-rays or Computed Tomography (CT) scans as it does not use ionizing radiations or oral contrast agents.

Fasting overnight (8-12 hours) and a full bladder are required prior to the test. This helps ensure clear pictures of the organs and structures within the abdomen.

What does Ultrasound Whole Abdomen measure?

The Ultrasound Whole Abdomen scan examines for size, shape, and motion of your stomach organs. It is able to demonstrate issues such as stones, cysts, or tumors. It is also useful in finding swelling, infection, or fluid accumulation in the belly (abdominal) area. The scan indicates whether any blood vessels in the belly are blocked or dilated. In addition, it allows physicians/doctors to check how well blood is circulating through your organs, which enables them to diagnose conditions such as liver disease, kidney issues, or other abdominal conditions.

The USG whole abdomen scan is accomplished with a specialized machine that contains a small handheld tool called a transducer. Prior to conducting the scan, the doctor or technician will put a special gel on your abdomen. This gel smooths the passage of the sound waves into your body and enhances the clarity of the images. This transducer is then placed on your abdomen. It transmits sound waves into your body, and when they reflect back, the machine converts them into images of the organs. Doctor uses these images to determine what is happening inside and to arrange for any treatment you should have.
