General Ultrasound

Our highly skilled technicians provide detailed scans with state-of-the-art equipment for the best possible imaging experience.
General ultrasound, also called sonography or diagnostic medical sonography, uses sound waves to create pictures of the organs inside your body. These images can give doctors important clues about what’s going on and help them diagnose and treat different diseases and conditions. It’s a safe, non-invasive way to get the answers you need within the comfort of our clinic.
