Why Carotid / Renal / Abdominal Ultrasound is Done
These ultrasound scans are used to check blood flow, organ health, or detect abnormalities:
Carotid Ultrasound: Checks blood flow in the carotid arteries of the neck to assess stroke risk or blockage.
Renal Ultrasound: Evaluates the kidneys and urinary system for stones, cysts, tumors, or infections.
Abdominal Ultrasound: Examines organs like the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and aorta for issues such as gallstones, liver disease, or aneurysms.
Why These Ultrasounds Are Used
Detect blockages, narrowing, or plaques in arteries (Carotid)
Evaluate kidney size, shape, stones, or obstructions (Renal)
Diagnose abdominal pain, swelling, or unexplained weight loss (Abdominal)
Monitor known conditions like kidney disease, liver cirrhosis, or aneurysms
Guide treatment decisions and monitor treatment response
