Usage of an ultrasound in the medical field began in the mid 1950’s. An Ultrasound Scan machine sends a low frequency sound into a specific part of a human body. This low frequency sound will hit the organ or tissues and will bounce back to the machine. The machine captures these bounced sound waves to create an image to identify the problem in that particular part or the organ.
Ultrasound scans use high frequency sound waves to capture images and video of the inside of the body. Abdominal ultrasounds help us to see the organs and structures inside the abdomen (the body cavity between chest and pelvis).
Gynaecology ultrasound scan or pelvic ultrasound scan is done in the pelvic region (In between abdomen and thighs) helps us to produce pictures your internal organs at that region like uterus and ovaries. This is the most effective and preferred method for examining your internal organs to find any deceases or abnormalities. This examination can be internal (transvaginal) or external or both.
An ultrasound sends sound waves into your body and captures the waves which bounce on your internal parts allowing it to capture a picture of your internal organ. This picture helps our experts to evaluate the diseases and its severity to reach the most appropriate solution. This ultrasound technique can be applied to small parts of your body which include Thyroid, Testis/Scrotum/Varicocele, Breast, Ophthalmic, Fontanelle Neurosonography, Musculoskelrtal : Shoulder , knee joint , ankle joints , muscles and tendons.
A Vascular ultrasound scan helps us to produce images of veins and arteries of your body using sound waves. This scan images information which is essential to examine, evaluate and monitor your veins and arteries. Doppler ultrasound is a more focused ultrasound technique that helps our experts to evaluate movement of materials in the body that allows our experts to see and evaluate blood flow through your veins and arteries. Mediscan offers various types of vascular ultrasound scans such as: Arterial doppler of upper and lower limbs, Venous doppler of upper and lower limbs ( Varicose veins/ DVT), Carotid studies, Pre-transplant Doppler, Aorta and renal arteries, Pelvic Doppler
