Ultrasound of internal organs: a description of the procedure

The length of the treatment depends on how correctly the diagnosis is made, and how effective it will be. Sometimes this can affect your health. On this basis, the treatment of the disease must begin with a very thorough examination, on the basis of which the doctor makes a diagnosis.

Ultrasound of internal organs is the simplest, highly effective and painless method of examination. Diagnosis with ultrasound is a quantitative and qualitative assessment of the data. To date, with the help of ultrasound, physicians in polyclinics and hospitals have the ability to monitor all changes that occur in the human body, as well as accurately determine the size of various pathological formations and how they affect the rest of the organs. Currently, the most complex studies are carried out using special sensors, which allows the use of various methods of treatment.

The ultrasound of the internal organs begins with the correct posture, which the patient must take while on a special couch. After this, a special gel is applied to the abdomen, which creates the closest contact between the surface of the body and the sensor. This sensor contact with the skin allows you to get the clearest image. Before the procedure, the internal sensors are subjected to special treatment and put on them an ultrasonic cover.

Ultrasound of internal organs has wide application in medicine. For example, there are two methods for performing ultrasound of the prostate: by introducing a special sensor into the rectum or through the abdominal wall. Ultrasound is the best tool for diagnosing prostate cancer. Using ultrasound, it is possible to effectively identify lesions, measure the prostate and detect cancer at an early stage.

Before the ultrasound of internal organs preparation is required. Before the examination through the rectum, a cleansing enema is carried out and it is recommended not to eat foods that cause gas formation. Such products include confectionery E products, dairy products, legumes, yeast bread and some vegetables. To facilitate the process of cleansing the intestine, you can drink in the evenings tea from the bark of buckthorn or senna. It is useful for a few days before the procedure to drink herbs and preparations that help reduce gas formation. For example, activated charcoal, tea made from mint, lemon balm or chamomile. A special diet should be observed at least a few days before you come to the procedure. Approximately two days before the study, it is necessary to make a cleansing enema. But it is best to do it directly on the eve of the procedure. Preparation must be treated responsibly, as failure to comply with the requirements may adversely affect the quality of the research itself.

Depending on the place where ultrasound of internal organs is performed, the price may vary. It can depend both on the city in which you live, and on the clinic where the procedure is performed. Basically, the price of ultrasound for internal organs does not exceed 800 rubles.
