• What is a Sonography?

Ultrasound, also known as sonography or ultrasonography, is a non-invasive imaging technique. The images generated using this method are referred to as sonograms. It employs high-frequency sound waves to generate real-time images or videos of internal organs and soft tissues, including blood vessels.

This technique allows healthcare professionals to examine soft tissues within the body without resorting to invasive surgical procedures. Unlike x-rays, ultrasound does not emit radiation.

While commonly linked to pregnancy, ultrasound is also a valuable diagnostic tool for examining internal body structures for a wide range of medical conditions.

• How does an ultrasound work?

During an ultrasound examination, a healthcare professional employs a device known as a transducer or probe, either gliding it over a particular region of your body or inserting it into a body opening. A thin layer of gel is spread on your skin to help the ultrasound waves pass through the gel and into your body.

The probe produces high-frequency sound waves by transforming electrical current, although these waves cannot be heard by the human ear.

When the sound waves bounce off the internal structures, they come back to the probe, which transforms them into electrical signals. The computer analyzes these signals, generating instant visual representations or videos that are projected onto a nearby screen.
