An abdominal ultrasound is a simple, non-invasive diagnostic test that uses harmless sound waves to create detailed images of your internal organs and blood vessels. At Dr. Aarti’s Diagnostic Centre in Sangli and Miraj, this procedure helps identify the cause of abdominal pain, bloating, or other digestive symptoms — without radiation exposure. It’s one of the most commonly recommended and safest imaging tests for assessing your abdominal health.
An abdominal ultrasound allows your doctor to visualize key organs such as the liver, kidneys, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and blood vessels within the abdomen. It’s also a preferred screening test for detecting an abdominal aortic aneurysm — a condition where the main artery (aorta) becomes enlarged or weak. Early diagnosis through ultrasound helps prevent serious complications and ensures timely treatment.
Your doctor may recommend this scan if you experience:
Persistent stomach pain or bloating
Suspected liver or kidney disorders
Gallstones or pancreatic issues
Unexplained changes in appetite or digestion
Family history or risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm
To get accurate results:
Avoid eating or drinking for 8–12 hours before the scan (fasting reduces gas buildup).
Ask your doctor whether you can take regular medications before the test.
Wear comfortable clothing and remove any jewelry before the procedure.
You’ll lie comfortably on an examination table while a technician applies a cool gel to your abdomen. A small handheld device gently glides over the area to capture live images on a computer screen. The test usually takes around 30 minutes and causes no pain or discomfort. You can resume your normal activities right after the scan.
