MediZen’s Ultrasound technology includes top-of-the-line equipment with digital and 3D capabilities. With this technology, we can routinely see anatomy and physiology not seen with conventional ultrasound. This results in faster exam time and more accurate diagnosis. This safe and painless procedure uses reflected sound waves to produce medical images of tissues and organs. Ultrasound is most commonly used in pregnancy and to study the abdomen, pelvis, thyroid arota, leg veins and arteries. Ultrasound is also used in vascular studies of the carotid arteries, providing early detection of the potential for a stroke.
