Ultrasound Whole Abdomen (Female) Test

During a safe abdominal ultrasound procedure, ultrasound (USG) waves are used to visualise the structures within the belly.

• It is generally recommended to have this scan done if you have persistent or severe stomach pain. 

• It is suggested to have an ultrasound throughout pregnancy to check the uterus, ovaries, and developing foetus. 

• In addition to establishing the presence of a foetus, estimating the age of the pregnancy, diagnosing congenital anomalies of the foetus, and assessing foetal growth, it is also a practical test for determining the size of the foetus.

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.
