What is Sonography?
Sonography, or ultrasound, is a safe and non-invasive imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to capture real-time images of internal organs, tissues, and blood flow. It is commonly used for pregnancy, abdominal, pelvic, and vascular evaluations.
Types of Sonography
- Obstetric (Pregnancy) Ultrasound
3D/4D fetal imaging to monitor growth, development, and overall health of the baby.
- Abdominal Ultrasound
Evaluates liver, kidneys, pancreas, gallbladder, and spleen for stones, infections, or tumors.
- Pelvic Ultrasound
Assesses reproductive organs in women and prostate in men.
- Vascular Ultrasound (Doppler)
Measures blood flow in arteries and veins to detect blockages, clots, or narrowing.
- Musculoskeletal Ultrasound
Helps detect joint, tendon, ligament, and soft tissue injuries.
What Should You Know Before the Test
Preparation depends on the scan type. For abdominal scans, fasting for 6–8 hours may be required. For pelvic scans, a full bladder is often necessary.
Yes. Sonography uses sound waves, not radiation, making it completely safe — even during pregnancy.
Most sonography tests take 20–45 minutes, depending on the type of scan.
No. Sonography is painless, though slight pressure from the probe may cause mild discomfort.
