What is a USG Scan?

A USG Scan (Ultrasound) is a widely used diagnostic tool that employs high-frequency sound waves to create images of internal body structures. This non-invasive, radiation-free technique has become an essential part of medical diagnostics. Ultrasound scans are safe, painless, and provide real-time visuals, making them invaluable for doctors and patients alike.

How Does USG Work?

During a USG scan, a hand-held device called a transducer is moved over the area of interest. It emits high-frequency sound waves that reflect off tissues and organs, converting the echoes into images displayed on a screen. The real-time images allow healthcare professionals to observe internal structures and monitor functions like blood flow or fetal movement.

Why Choose USG Scans?

USG scans are preferred by patients and doctors due to their numerous advantages:

1. Non-Invasive: Ultrasound doesn’t require surgery or injections, making it ideal for routine check-ups and detailed diagnostics.
2. Painless: The procedure is comfortable, with no associated discomfort or recovery time.
3. Radiation-Free: Unlike X-rays or CT scans, ultrasound uses sound waves, making it safe for all, including pregnant women.
4. Quick Results: With real-time imaging, results can often be discussed immediately with the doctor.
