FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What are ultrasound scans?
Ultrasound scans are images of the arteries and organs created from sound waves. The images are produced when the sound waves are directed into the body then reflected back to a scanner that measures them.
How does an ultrasound work?
The ultrasound scanner looks like a small paint roller. As it moves back and forth over the body, it sends sound waves through the skin and muscles. These waves are then turned into an image that appears on a TV screen. The scan can also be copied onto paper or X-ray film.
What are ultrasound scans used for?
Ultrasound scanning is used to screen for conditions in many parts of the body, including plaque in the carotid arteries for stroke risk, cancer of the kidneys, thyroid, liver, and gallbladder, and abnormal heart function.
Ultrasound scanning is not dangerous and has no side effects.
