Echocardiography, a specialized form of ultrasound, allows us to assess the structure and function of the heart. It helps in the diagnosis and management of various cardiovascular disorders, such as heart valve abnormalities, congenital heart defects, and cardiomyopathies. Our experienced team utilizes advanced cardiac ultrasound techniques to provide accurate and detailed information.
Reproductive Health
Pelvic ultrasound is frequently used to evaluate reproductive health in both men and women. It can help diagnose conditions such as ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and prostate abnormalities. By visualizing the pelvic organs, ultrasound aids in the early detection and management of these conditions.
Sports Injuries and Musculoskeletal Disorders
Musculoskeletal ultrasound is valuable in the assessment of sports injuries, joint disorders, and musculoskeletal abnormalities. It allows us to visualize the joints, tendons, ligaments, and muscles in real-time, helping with the diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as sprains, strains, arthritis, and tendonitis.
