At East Delhi Medical Centre, we offer a wide range of ultrasound tests using advanced Samsung V7 ultrasound technology. Every scan is performed with attention to detail and interpreted by experienced radiologists who focus on delivering reports your treating doctor can trust. Whether you need an abdominal ultrasound, pregnancy ultrasound, Colour Doppler study, pelvic ultrasound or a specialized ultrasound-guided procedure, our team is committed to providing accurate imaging in a comfortable environment.
What Happens During an Ultrasound Scan?
Most ultrasound tests are simple, painless and completed within 20 to 30 minutes. A trained sonographer or radiologist applies a clear gel over the area being examined and gently moves a handheld probe across the skin. The probe sends sound waves into the body, which are converted into detailed images on a monitor.
Some examinations, such as transvaginal sonography or certain specialised scans, may follow a different technique depending on the area being evaluated. Before your appointment, our team will explain the procedure and answer any questions you may have.
How Should I Prepare for an Ultrasound?
Preparation depends on the type of ultrasound you are scheduled for.
For some abdominal ultrasound scans, you may be asked to avoid eating for a few hours before the test. For pelvic ultrasound examinations, drinking water beforehand and arriving with a comfortably full bladder may improve image quality. Other ultrasound tests require little or no preparation.
When you book your appointment, our staff will provide clear instructions based on the scan recommended by your doctor.
Each examination is performed only when medically indicated and is tailored to the patient's clinical condition. Detailed reporting helps your treating doctor make informed decisions about further evaluation or treatment.
USG Scans we provide
An abdominal ultrasound is one of the most commonly recommended imaging tests for evaluating the organs inside your abdomen. Using high-frequency sound waves, the scan produces real-time images of the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, spleen, urinary bladder, and major blood vessels. It is completely non-invasive, does not use radiation, and is often the first investigation your doctor recommends for abdominal symptoms.
Your doctor may advise an abdominal ultrasound if you have persistent abdominal pain, bloating, unexplained swelling, jaundice, suspected gallstones, kidney stones, liver disease, urinary problems, or abnormal liver function tests. The scan also helps investigate infections, cysts, tumours, and enlargement of abdominal organs. Because it provides immediate imaging, it allows doctors to identify many conditions quickly and decide whether further investigations are needed.
Common Uses of an Abdominal Ultrasound
- Evaluate liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys and spleen
- Detect gallstones and kidney stones
- Assess fatty liver and other liver diseases
- Investigate abdominal pain or swelling
- Examine the urinary bladder and kidneys
- Detect cysts, fluid collections and abdominal masses
At East Delhi Medical Centre, abdominal ultrasound scans are performed using advanced Samsung V7 ultrasound technology by experienced radiologists who focus on accurate imaging and detailed reporting. Whether you have been advised a routine abdominal scan or require further evaluation of ongoing symptoms, our team ensures timely appointments and dependable diagnostic support.
A Liver Ultrasound and Liver Fibroscan are important diagnostic tests used to evaluate the health of your liver. While a liver ultrasound provides detailed images of the liver and surrounding organs, a Liver Fibroscan measures liver stiffness to help detect fibrosis or scarring without the need for a biopsy. These tests are quick, non-invasive, and play an important role in the early detection and monitoring of liver diseases.
Your doctor may recommend a Liver Ultrasound or Liver Fibroscan if you have fatty liver disease, hepatitis, abnormal liver function tests, jaundice, long-term alcohol use, diabetes, obesity, or persistent pain in the upper right side of the abdomen. Early assessment allows doctors to identify liver damage before symptoms become severe and helps guide appropriate treatment.
A Liver Ultrasound or Liver Fibroscan May Be Recommended For
- Fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
- Liver fibrosis and cirrhosis
- Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C
- Abnormal liver function tests (LFT)
- Jaundice
- Liver enlargement
- Liver cysts or masses
- Monitoring chronic liver disease
At East Delhi Medical Centre, Liver Ultrasound and Liver Fibroscan are performed using advanced imaging technology by experienced radiologists. Detailed and accurate reporting helps your gastroenterologist or physician assess liver health, monitor disease progression, and plan the most appropriate treatment without unnecessary delays.
Echo Tests
Understand Your Heart's Health with Advanced Echocardiography
An Echo Test, also known as Echocardiography, is a specialised ultrasound examination that helps doctors evaluate the structure and function of the heart. Unlike an ECG, which records the heart's electrical activity, an Echo Test creates real-time images of the heart, allowing your cardiologist to assess how well it is pumping, how the valves are functioning, and whether blood is flowing normally through the chambers.
Your doctor may recommend an Echo Test if you experience chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, dizziness, swelling in the legs, or have a history of hypertension or heart disease. It is also commonly advised after a heart attack, before certain surgeries, or to monitor existing cardiac conditions.
What Can an Echo Test Detect?
- Heart valve disorders
- Reduced heart pumping function
- Congenital heart defects
- Enlargement of heart chambers
- Fluid around the heart
- Heart muscle disorders
- Certain causes of breathlessness or chest discomfort
The test is completely non-invasive, painless, and usually takes around 20 to 30 minutes. Since it does not involve radiation, it can be safely performed whenever clinically required.
At East Delhi Medical Centre, Echo Tests are performed using advanced ultrasound technology, helping cardiologists diagnose heart conditions accurately and plan the most appropriate treatment. If your doctor has advised a heart ultrasound or Echo Test, our experienced team ensures a comfortable experience with timely and reliable reporting.
A Pelvic Ultrasound is a safe and effective imaging test used to examine the organs within the pelvis. For women, it helps evaluate the uterus, ovaries, cervix, and urinary bladder. For men, the scan may be recommended to assess the urinary bladder, prostate, or surrounding pelvic structures. Because it uses sound waves instead of radiation, a pelvic ultrasound is considered a safe diagnostic investigation for a wide range of conditions.
Doctors commonly recommend a pelvic ultrasound for pelvic pain, irregular menstrual cycles, heavy bleeding, ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids, infertility evaluation, urinary symptoms, or unexplained lower abdominal discomfort. It is also used to investigate bladder-related conditions and monitor certain gynaecological disorders.
A Pelvic Ultrasound May Be Recommended For
- Pelvic or lower abdominal pain
- Irregular or heavy menstrual bleeding
- Ovarian cysts
- Uterine fibroids
- Urinary bladder disorders
- Infertility evaluation
- Prostate assessment when clinically indicated
Depending on your condition, your doctor may advise a transabdominal or transvaginal pelvic ultrasound. Our team will explain the procedure beforehand and provide any preparation instructions, including whether a full bladder is required.
At East Delhi Medical Centre, pelvic ultrasound scans are performed by experienced radiologists using advanced imaging technology to provide detailed, accurate reports that help your treating doctor make informed clinical decisions.
Chest Ultrasound
A Safe and Effective Scan for Evaluating the Chest
A chest ultrasound is a specialised imaging test that helps doctors examine the pleural space, chest wall, and the fluid surrounding the lungs. Unlike an X-ray or CT scan, it uses sound waves to produce real-time images without exposing the patient to radiation. It is often used to investigate symptoms, monitor existing conditions, and guide certain medical procedures with greater precision.
Your doctor may recommend a chest ultrasound if you have chest pain, difficulty breathing, persistent cough, suspected pleural effusion, infection, or fluid around the lungs. The scan also plays an important role in evaluating chest wall swellings and can help doctors assess abnormalities that require further investigation.
A Chest Ultrasound May Be Recommended For
- Pleural effusion (fluid around the lungs)
- Chest infections
- Persistent chest pain
- Difficulty breathing
- Chest wall swellings
- Evaluation of pleural abnormalities
- Ultrasound-guided aspiration or drainage procedures
At East Delhi Medical Centre, chest ultrasound examinations are performed by experienced radiologists using advanced ultrasound technology to provide detailed and reliable imaging. Accurate reports help your treating doctor understand the cause of your symptoms and plan the most appropriate treatment.
Assess Blood Flow with Precision
A Colour Doppler Ultrasound is an advanced ultrasound test that evaluates the movement of blood through arteries and veins. While a routine ultrasound shows the structure of organs and tissues, a Colour Doppler scan helps doctors understand how blood is flowing, making it an important investigation for diagnosing vascular conditions and circulation-related disorders.
Your doctor may advise a Colour Doppler Ultrasound if you have leg pain, swelling, varicose veins, suspected blood clots, carotid artery disease, poor circulation, or other vascular problems. It is also commonly used to assess blood flow in different parts of the body whenever detailed vascular evaluation is required.
A Colour Doppler Ultrasound May Be Recommended For
- Varicose veins
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
- Peripheral arterial disease
- Carotid artery evaluation
- Leg swelling or pain
- Poor blood circulation
- Assessment of arterial and venous blood flow
The procedure is safe, painless, and non-invasive. It does not require radiation and is usually completed within a short time, allowing your doctor to obtain valuable information about your vascular health.
At East Delhi Medical Centre, Colour Doppler Ultrasound studies are performed using advanced imaging systems to deliver accurate assessment of blood flow and vascular function. Combined with expert interpretation and timely reporting, the examination helps your doctor diagnose circulation problems early and recommend the most appropriate course of treatment.
