An Ultrasound Whole Abdomen is a safe, non-invasive imaging test that uses high-frequency sound waves to create live images of the organs and structures within your entire abdominal cavity. It's a key diagnostic tool at Scan4Health Diagnostic Centre for assessing the health of organs like the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, spleen, and bladder. It helps doctors detect and monitor a wide range of conditions, from kidney stones to liver disease, with no radiation exposure.

The Whole Abdominal Ultrasound is an essential diagnostic procedure that provides your physician with a real-time, comprehensive view of the major organs in your abdomen. This technique involves placing a small, handheld device called a transducer on the skin, which transmits sound waves into the body and captures the returning echoes. These echoes are then converted into a clear moving image, known as a sonogram, on a monitor.

This comprehensive scan meticulously examines both the upper and lower abdomen, looking for structural abnormalities, masses, fluid collections, or inflammation. Key areas assessed include:

• Upper Abdomen:
  • Liver: Evaluated for size, texture, fatty changes (steatosis), masses, and signs of chronic disease (e.g., cirrhosis).
  • Gallbladder and Biliary System: Checked for the presence of **gallstones**, sludge, polyps, or signs of inflammation (cholecystitis) or obstruction.
  • Pancreas: Visualized to look for inflammation (**pancreatitis**), cysts, or masses, though this can sometimes be obscured by bowel gas.
  • Spleen: Assessed for size (looking for **splenomegaly**) and any evidence of injury or cysts.
• Kidneys and Urinary Tract:
  • Kidneys and Ureters: Checked for size, position, the presence of **kidney stones**, cysts, tumors, or signs of obstruction (**hydronephrosis**).
  • Urinary Bladder: Evaluated for wall thickness, masses, and post-void residual (how well it empties).
• Vascular Structures: Examination of the major abdominal blood vessels, including the **Aorta** and Vena Cava, to screen for aneurysms or other vascular issues.
