The Ultrasound Upper Abdomen test is a non-invasive imaging procedure that uses high-frequency sound waves to examine the organs located in the upper abdominal region, including the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and kidneys. It provides detailed images of these internal organs and helps doctors evaluate their size, structure, and overall condition to detect any abnormalities.
This test is commonly recommended when a person experiences symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, digestive discomfort, or unexplained swelling in the upper abdomen. It helps identify conditions such as fatty liver, gallstones, liver inflammation, pancreatic disorders, kidney stones, cysts, infections, enlarged organs, or tumors. Ultrasound Upper Abdomen is a safe, painless, and radiation-free diagnostic procedure often used for early detection, diagnosis, and monitoring of abdominal conditions, helping doctors determine the need for further treatment or additional investigations.
