Ultrasound
At Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, ultrasound is a critical diagnostic tool that uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of the internal structures of the body. This non-invasive, radiation-free procedure is used to evaluate a variety of conditions and is particularly valuable in assessing soft tissues, organs, and blood flow.
Benefits of Ultrasound:
- Safe and Non-invasive: Ultrasound is completely safe as it uses sound waves instead of radiation, making it ideal for sensitive populations like pregnant women.
- Real-Time Imaging: Ultrasound provides live images, allowing for immediate assessment of organ movement, blood flow, and fetal development.
- Wide Range of Applications: It is commonly used for examining the abdomen, pelvis, thyroid, heart (Echocardiogram), and for guiding biopsies and other medical procedures.
- Painless: The procedure is comfortable and doesn’t require any incisions or injections, providing a stress-free experience for patients.
- Rapid Results: Ultrasound results can be quickly analyzed, aiding in fast diagnosis and treatment planning.
What to Expect:
During the ultrasound, a specially trained technician will apply a gel to the skin and glide a transducer over the area to capture images. The procedure is quick, generally lasting 15-30 minutes, and allows patients to resume normal activities immediately.
At Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, our state-of-the-art ultrasound equipment and highly trained staff ensure accurate diagnostics and high-quality patient care, whether it’s for pregnancy monitoring, abdominal pain assessment, or other health concerns.
