Also known as Sonography, ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to produce pictures of the inside of the body. Most of us know ultrasound as the procedure used to get a first peek at a baby when a woman is expecting — and to see if it’s a boy or girl — but ultrasound is also used to diagnose gallbladder disease, evaluate blood flow, guide a needle for biopsy or tumor treatment, examine a breast lump, check your thyroid gland, detect genital and prostate problems, assess joint inflammation (synovitis) and evaluate metabolic bone disease.

Ultrasound exams are non-invasive and do not use ionizing radiation. Because images are captured in real-time, they can show the structure and movement of the body’s internal organs, as well as blood flowing through blood vessels.

In addition to advanced ultrasound / sonography technology, we offer evening and Saturday hours for your convenience, a group of seasoned technicians, a caring team, onsite radiologists to read your results, and a focus on your comfort from start to finish. It’s this combination that makes us southern Indiana’s ultrasound leader.
