Ultrasound (USG) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of the inside of the body.
Applications: Commonly used for diagnosing conditions in organs such as the liver, kidneys, and heart, and for monitoring pregnancies.
Benefits: Safe, radiation-free, and provides real-time imaging for accurate diagnosis.
Doppler Ultrasound is an advanced form of ultrasound that measures blood flow and velocity in vessels.
Applications: Essential for evaluating blood flow in arteries and veins, diagnosing blood clots, and assessing heart conditions.
Benefits: Helps in detecting vascular issues, provides detailed information on blood flow patterns, and aids in planning treatments.
Liver Elastography is a specialized ultrasound technique that measures the stiffness of the liver to assess liver fibrosis or cirrhosis.
Applications: Used for evaluating liver health, diagnosing chronic liver diseases, and monitoring liver fibrosis progression.
Benefits: Non-invasive, provides accurate liver stiffness measurements, and helps in early detection of liver conditions.
