About Ultrasound Scan
An Ultrasound Scan in Hyderabad, as discussed, is an imaging technique that creates images using high-frequency sound waves. During the Ultrasound procedure, the Sonographer applies gel on the skin, allowing the probe to move smoothly. The Sonographer further rubs an Ultrasound Probe on the body part that is scanned. The probe sends high-frequency sound waves inside the body part. These sound waves bounce back to the transducer after traveling through the soft tissues and fluids. These echoes help create live images and display them on the computer screen. Ultrasound most importantly shows body parts in motion, like heartbeat and blood flowing through blood vessels, etc.
