Overview: Ultrasound Imaging, also known as Echography or Ultrasonography, is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce real-time images of the body’s internal structures. At Polyclinic Saint Robert, we offer comprehensive ultrasound imaging services to assist in the diagnosis and management of various medical conditions.
Scope of Practice: Ultrasound Imaging at Polyclinic Saint Robert encompasses a wide range of diagnostic examinations, including but not limited to:
- Obstetric Ultrasound: Obstetric ultrasound is used during pregnancy to monitor fetal growth and development, assess the health of the baby, and detect any abnormalities or complications. It can also determine the baby’s gender, estimate gestational age, and evaluate the placenta and amniotic fluid levels.
- Gynecological Ultrasound: Gynecological ultrasound is used to evaluate the female reproductive organs, including the uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes. It can help diagnose conditions such as ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids, endometrial polyps, and ovarian tumors. Gynecological ultrasound is also used to assess the pelvic organs for infertility evaluation and preoperative planning.
- Abdominal Ultrasound: Abdominal ultrasound is performed to visualize the abdominal organs, including the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen. It can help diagnose conditions such as liver disease, gallstones, kidney stones, pancreatic tumors, and abdominal aortic aneurysms.
- Vascular Ultrasound: Vascular ultrasound is used to evaluate the blood vessels, including arteries and veins, for conditions such as blood clots, arterial stenosis, venous insufficiency, and peripheral artery disease. It can also assess blood flow and detect abnormalities in the vascular system.
