Abdominal ultrasound scan and examination at Eskulap clinic in London.

The abdominal ultrasound scan in London is performed by a radiologist.

Abdominal and pelvic ultrasound is performed to determine the condition of the internal organs of the abdominal cavity, including the kidneys, liver, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas, adrenal glands, bladder, prostate, female pelvic organs, large abdominal blood vessels, including the aorta and lymph nodes and intestines.

Abdominal ultrasound allows you to detect tumors and cysts (cysts) in the organs and often diagnose the source of the pain the patient is complaining about. We perform ultrasound examinations of the abdominal cavity to determine whether certain organs are enlarged, to assess their appearance, and in the case of pathologies – to assess the stage of the disease.

An abdominal ultrasound can also help us diagnose if there is fluid in the body and abdomen. During the examination, we are able to detect the presence of abdominal aortic aneurysms. Often the test is performed to confirm the correct morphology (no visible disease of the abdominal organs) or to differentiate the cause of pain.

    How does the abdominal ultrasound examination look like?

    An abdominal ultrasound is performed through the skin (abdominal wall). Before the examination, the nurse should moisten the skin with a special gel that prevents reflection of waves. Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves that cannot be heard by the human ear. High-frequency signals emitted by ultrasonic machines are safe for humans. The doctor rests the probe of the device on the skin and then moves the probe towards the stomach. The location of the probe depends on the organ being examined. Abdominal ultrasound image is displayed on the monitor.

    The ultrasound examination is performed by an experienced doctor, specialist in the field of radiology. After the ultrasound examination, the doctor prepares a description of the tests. With this result, you can go to the doctor who referred you for the ultrasound.

    Is the ultrasound scan safe?

    Ultrasound is a popular technique used to assess the condition of organs, joints and blood vessels. Ultrasound does not have a negative effect on the human body. The entire examination is usually painless. Occasionally, when abdominal pain occurs, the patient may experience discomfort during the examination. When the doctor moves the probe over the body, he may put pressure on it so that the organ under examination is visible.

    Advantages and disadvantages of abdominal ultrasound.

    • It is a non-invasive test that does not require the use of needles or syringes
    • The test has no side effects and can be performed as many times as you like
    • Ultrasound allows you to examine tissues that are not visible during an X-ray examination
    • Compared to computer tomography, the cost of ultrasound treatment is low. In addition, scans can be considered readily available
    • Ultrasound does not use X-rays. Therefore, even pregnant women are completely safe
    • Diagnostics of overweight patients can be difficult. Dense fat tissue will reduce the power of the waves from the probe
    • The emitted ultrasonic waves are dispersed in the air. It may be difficult or impossible to assess the gut or organs that contain gas.
