An ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging test that produces a real-time visual of the structures inside your body. The test is noninvasive, painless, and doesn’t rely on radiation to get the image. Instead, sound waves travel through a handheld probe that moves over the surface of your skin.
These sound waves bounce off internal structures and send a visual picture of internal structures to an external monitor. The imaging test can evaluate your major organs, blood vessels, and the flow of blood through the vessels.
At Rochester Primary Care, on-site ultrasound technology is available for your convenience for a variety of diagnostic and health monitoring needs.
