What is an ultrasound?

An ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that utilizes high-frequency sound waves to create real-time, dynamic images of the internal structures of the body. At our facility, we utilize Siemens Acuson Sequoia ultrasound system, offering a versatile range of imaging services.
