Abdominal Ultrasound (Male) Test

The organs and structures of the abdomen are examined using an abdominal ultrasound. Ultrasound technology for the abdominal aorta, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, bile ducts, and spleen allows for quick external viewing of abdominal organs and tissues. Ultrasound can also be used to assess the blood flow to the abdominal organs.

• A physician gives sonography when symptoms like stomach pain, oedema, or infection cannot be explained.

• This scan is used to diagnose diseases such as enlarged organs, abdominal fluid, gallstones, hernias, pancreatitis, kidney disease, liver cancer, and appendicitis.

Your healthcare professional may instruct you to refrain from eating or drinking for several hours before your test. In some cases, you may be required to drink a certain amount of water immediately before your test.

You lie on your back on a comfortable table for an abdominal ultrasound scan. You will be required to pull up or remove your shirt, as well as put on a hospital gown.

During the examination, a trained professional:

• Apply gel to your abdomen: A water-soluble gel will be applied to any areas of your stomach that the provider will examine. This gel may feel cold to the touch. It will not harm you or your clothing.
• The technician gently moves the handheld ultrasound wand over your skin, on top of the gel. The technician moves the probe back and forth until the areas in question are clearly visible.
• The sonographer/radiologist has been trained to produce the clearest images possible. They might request that you turn to one side or hold your breath for a few seconds.
• Skin cleansing: Any remaining gel on your skin is wiped away by the nurse or tissues will be provided.
