FOCUSED IMAGING
Single-Organ Ultrasound
Targeted imaging when you need a closer look at one organ or system. Efficient, focused, and ideal for follow-up evaluations or specific concerns.
Targeted region
Faster turnaround
Same expert quality
SAMPLE COLLECTION
Guided Fine-Needle Aspiration
Ultrasound guidance allows us to safely sample suspicious areas to collect target cells, without an invasive procedure. Especially helpful when imaging alone can't determine the nature of a mass.
Precise targeting
Minimal stress for patient
Essential for tissue characterization
DIAGNOSTIC RANGE
Conditions ultrasound helps diagnose
Ultrasound covers the entire abdominal organ system, making it an exceptionally useful diagnostic tool. Additionally, we can perform a single-organ system ultrasound to focus on a specific organ or system of organs. Common conditions these types of ultrasounds can help diagnose include:
Pyelonephritis
Cushing's Disease
Polycystic kidneys
Gastrointestinal obstruction
Nephrolithiasis
Neoplasia
Inflammatory bowel disease
Renal dysplasia
Reproductive diseases
Splenic torsion
Pancreatitis
While ultrasound is an effective diagnostic tool, it is not always able to give a definitive diagnosis. This is especially true if we find a mass, with the image alone, we are not able to see what type of tissue it is (whether malignant or benign). A sample of tissue will need to be taken for analysis.
