Ultrasound imaging, also known as an ultrasound scan or sonography, is performed using a small transducer (probe) placed directly on the skin and ultrasound gel. High-frequency sound waves are transmitted from the probe through the gel into the body. The transducer collects the returning sounds, and a computer uses those sound waves to create an image. Ultrasound exams do not use radiation, so the patient is not exposed to radiation. Since ultrasound images are captured in real-time, they can show the structure and movement of the body&#8217;s internal organs, as well as blood flow through blood vessels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultrasound imaging is a non-invasive medical test that helps doctors diagnose and treat medical conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are three types of pelvic ultrasound:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">abdominal (transabdominal)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">vaginal (transvaginal) for women<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">rectal (transrectal) for men<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Doppler ultrasound exam may be part of a pelvic ultrasound examination.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Doppler ultrasound, also called color Doppler ultrasonography, is a special ultrasound technique that evaluates blood flow. It allows the doctor to assess blood flow in arteries and veins throughout the body, such as in the arms, legs, neck, brain (in infants and children), or various abdominal organs, including the liver, spleen, and kidneys.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are the Common Uses of Pelvic Ultrasound?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In women, pelvic ultrasound is most often used to evaluate the uterus, cervix, ovaries, fallopian tubes (uterine tubes), and bladder.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pelvic ultrasound exams are also used to monitor the health and development of an embryo or fetus during pregnancy. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For more information, visit the <\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hekimoglugoruntuleme.com\/20-hafta-ayrintili-gebelik-ultrasonografisi-fetal-anomali-tarama\/\">Obstetric Ultrasound<\/a> page<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ultrasound exams can help diagnose symptoms experienced by women, such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pelvic pain (lower abdominal pain)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Abnormal vaginal bleeding<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other menstrual problems<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Palpable masses such as ovarian cysts and uterine fibroids<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ovarian or uterine cancers<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transvaginal ultrasound is typically used to view the endometrium (lining of the uterus) and ovaries.
