Ultrasound scanning is used to help monitor and diagnose symptoms in many different parts of the body, including the kidneys, liver and heart. It is most often used to examine conditions affecting the organs in a woman’s pelvis – the uterus, Fallopian tubes and ovaries. Ultrasound scanning is not dangerous and has no side effects, so it is perfectly safe to use during pregnancy.
