Types of Ultrasound Offered
At Jyoti Multispecialty Hospital and Trauma Center, we offer a wide range of ultrasound services, including abdominal, obstetric, vascular, musculoskeletal, and breast ultrasound.
Abdominal ultrasound is a non-invasive procedure used to examine organs in the abdomen such as the liver, spleen, kidneys, and gallbladder.
Obstetric ultrasound is used during pregnancy to monitor the development of the fetus and detect any potential abnormalities.
Vascular ultrasound is used to examine the blood vessels and assess blood flow.
Musculoskeletal ultrasound is used to diagnose issues with the muscles, tendons, and joints.
Breast ultrasound is used to examine breast tissue and detect any abnormalities.
Preparation for Ultrasound
To prepare for an ultrasound at Jyoti Hospital, patients may need to follow specific dietary restrictions or fast before the procedure.
For example, patients may need to fast for a certain amount of time before an abdominal ultrasound to ensure accurate results. Patients may also be asked to wear loose-fitting clothing and avoid wearing jewellery or other accessories that could interfere with the ultrasound.
Ultrasound Procedure
During an ultrasound at Jyoti Hospital, patients lie on a table while a technician applies a special gel to the area being examined.
The technician then uses a handheld device called a transducer to transmit sound waves through the body, which bounce back to the transducer and create real-time images on a screen.
Patients may need to change positions during the exam, and the technician will ask for feedback regarding comfort and safety.
Interpreting Results
After an ultrasound at Jyoti Hospital, the images are interpreted by a trained radiologist or physician, who will communicate the results to the patient’s physician for further evaluation and treatment. The results may be available immediately or within a few days, depending on the complexity of the exam.
Benefits of Ultrasound
Ultrasound is a non-invasive and radiation-free diagnostic tool that provides real-time imaging, making it an ideal option for patients who may need frequent monitoring or those who are sensitive to radiation exposure. Ultrasound can also be used to detect potential issues early, allowing for prompt treatment and management of various medical conditions.
At Jyoti Hospital’s ultrasound facility, our dedicated team of professionals is committed to providing the highest quality diagnostic imaging services for our patients. With our state-of-the-art equipment and experienced technicians, we aim to ensure accurate and timely diagnoses for improved patient outcomes.
