How Is an Abdominal Ultrasound Scan Done? | What to Expect
An abdominal ultrasound scan is a non-invasive and painless imaging test that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce live images of abdominal organs such as the liver, gallbladder, kidneys, pancreas, spleen, and abdominal aorta. This safe diagnostic test does not use any radiation, making it suitable for all ages.
What to Expect Before the Abdominal Ultrasound
- Fasting Required: You may need to avoid food and drink for 4–6 hours before the scan. This helps reduce gas in the intestines for clearer imaging.
- Comfortable Positioning: You’ll be asked to lie on your back on an examination bed.
- Gel Application: A water-based ultrasound gel will be applied to your abdomen to help transmit sound waves.
- Clothing: You might need to lift or adjust your clothing to expose the abdomen.
What Happens During the Abdominal Ultrasound Procedure
- A trained sonographer or radiologist will use a handheld device called a transducer and gently glide it over your abdomen.
- You may be asked to hold your breath or turn to one side to get a better view of certain organs.
- The specialist will capture real-time images, take measurements, and make clinical notes for review.
What to Expect After the Scan
- The gel will be cleaned off, and you can resume normal activities immediately.
- A detailed radiology report is usually prepared within 24 hours and sent to your referring healthcare provider.
