If you are wondering about having an abdominal ultrasound, it is likely that you either have been experiencing abdominal and gastric symptoms or are concerned about certain illnesses and indeed, abdominal ultrasounds have many helpful applications.
There are several key organs located in the abdomen, which an abdominal ultrasound can visualise, including:
- Kidneys
- Liver
- Gallbladder
- Pancreas
- Spleen
- Abdominal aorta (a major artery)
Abdominal ultrasound can diagnose multiple conditions, including appendicitis, find the cause of abdominal pain, and help detect stones such as kidney stones and gallstones. These stones create a clear ultrasound shadow.
Abdomen ultrasounds can also be used to diagnose fatty liver and support the management of liver-related diseases.
We also use abdominal ultrasounds as part of our health screening services to help early detection and prevention of serious illnesses such as cancer. Ultrasounds can help show tumours of the liver, for example.
