What is an Ultrasound Scan?

Ultrasound imaging (or sonography) is a method of acquiring information about the inside of the body using high frequency sound waves to show the size, shape and texture of the internal organs and blood vessels. Ultrasound waves cannot pass through gas so the stomach or bowel cannot be evaluated. Euromedic specialises in diagnostic ultrasounds. Pregnancy ultrasounds are also carried out in Euromedic Charlemont.
