Accurate Detection Made Simple

A hernia ultrasound scan is a specialized imaging procedure used to detect and evaluate hernias in various parts of the body, particularly in the abdominal region. This non-invasive test utilizes high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images, allowing healthcare providers to assess the size, type, and location of the hernia.

  • Preparation: Generally, no special preparation is needed, but you may be advised to wear comfortable clothing and avoid heavy meals before the scan.
  • Procedure: During the ultrasound, you will lie on an examination table. A gel will be applied to the area of interest to facilitate sound wave transmission. The technician will use a transducer to capture images of the affected area, applying gentle pressure to assess the hernia’s characteristics.
  • Duration: The procedure typically takes about 20 minutes.
  • Post-Scan: There are no side effects, and you can resume your normal activities immediately after the scan.

A hernia ultrasound scan is commonly performed to:

  • Identify the presence and type of hernia, such as inguinal, femoral, or umbilical hernias
  • Assess the size and content of the hernia sac
  • Determine if there are any complications, such as incarceration or strangulation
  • Safe and Non-Invasive: This procedure does not involve radiation, making it a safe choice for patients of all ages.
  • Real-Time Imaging: Allows for immediate visualization of the hernia and surrounding structures.
  • Quick Results: Images are available for review shortly after the scan, aiding in prompt diagnosis and treatment planning.
