Ultrasonography
Ultrasonography
Medical ultrasound (also known as diagnostic sonography or ultrasonography) is a diagnostic imaging technique, or therapeutic application of ultrasound. It is used to create an image of internal body structures such as tendons, muscles, joints, blood vessels, and internal organs. Its aim is often to find a source of a disease or to exclude pathology. The practice of examining pregnant women using ultrasound is called obstetric ultrasound, and was an early development and application of clinical ultrasonography.
Ultrasonography in Modern Medicine
Ultrasound is an indispensable tool in modern medicine. Ultrasound diagnostics is a non-invasive method of examining internal organs, conducted through ultrasonic waves. This diagnostic method is one of the most common worldwide, it is completely painless and at the same time very informative. Since the method does not use radiation, it is completely harmless.
Modern Ultrasound and Main Directions
Cardiological Ultrasound, Abdominal Ultrasound, Pelvic Ultrasound, Fetal Ultrasound, Thyroid Ultrasound, Ultrasound of the Neck and Uterine Arteries, and Ultrasound of Peripheral Arteries and Veins.
Ultrasound plays an important role in modern medicine because it provides accurate and detailed information about the condition of organs and structures. This method allows doctors to detect and diagnose various diseases in a timely manner, which facilitates effective treatment. Ultrasound is safe and non-traumatic, meaning that patients experience minimal discomfort associated with the examination process. Overall, ultrasound improves patient health and well-being, providing accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
