Ultrasound

Ultrasound is a painless, non-invasive, diagnostic test that produces images without the use of radiation. It is a valuable resource for tracking the health of a pregnancy. Ultrasound is also used to view organs such as the liver, uterus, ovaries, thyroid, and aorta. It is also used to help evaluate blood clots or the narrowing of vessels.
