What is Ultrasound good for?
A.Ultrasound is very useful in evaluating soft tissue structures in the abdomen and pelvis, in looking at the heart, and in evaluating tendons. Because Ultrasound does not cause damage, it is particularly useful in evaluating reproductive problems, and even in trying to count the number of fetuses present. It is also very useful in looking at cysts and tumors and in evaluating heart disease.
