Ultrasound Services
Ultrasound is a safe, painless imaging tool used in both obstetric and gynecologic care. Whether you’re confirming a pregnancy, monitoring fetal growth, or evaluating pelvic symptoms, ultrasound provides clear, real-time images that help guide your care.
We offer in-office ultrasound services performed by experienced technicians and interpreted by your provider so you get fast, accurate results and a better understanding of your health.
What Is an Ultrasound?
An ultrasound (or sonogram) uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of structures inside the body. It’s commonly used to:
- Confirm and date a pregnancy
- Monitor fetal development and well-being
- Evaluate pelvic pain, bleeding, or abnormal periods
- Check for ovarian cysts, fibroids, or uterine abnormalities
- Guide procedures such as IUD placement or biopsies
Ultrasound does not use radiation and is safe for both pregnant and non-pregnant patients.
Types of Ultrasound We Offer
1. Transabdominal Ultrasound
- Performed over the abdomen
- Often used during pregnancy or for general pelvic imaging
2. Transvaginal Ultrasound
- A thin probe is gently inserted into the vagina for a closer view
- Common in early pregnancy or when detailed imaging is needed
3. Obstetric Ultrasound
- Used throughout pregnancy to check fetal growth, anatomy, position, and amniotic fluid levels
- Includes dating scans, anatomy scans (typically at 20 weeks), and biophysical profiles
4. Gynecologic Ultrasound
- Evaluates the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and endometrial lining
- Helps diagnose conditions like fibroids, ovarian cysts, or endometriosis
When Is an Ultrasound Recommended?
Ultrasounds are used at various stages of life and health. Common reasons include:
- Confirming early pregnancy and viability
- Tracking fetal growth, movement, and internal development
- Investigating abnormal bleeding or pain
- Monitoring known conditions (like fibroids or PCOS)
- Evaluating fertility or ovulation timing
- Assessing postmenopausal symptoms
Your provider will recommend the right type of ultrasound based on your symptoms, health history, and stage of care.
What to Expect During Your Ultrasound
Ultrasounds are typically performed in a quiet, private exam room. Depending on the type of ultrasound:
- You may need to arrive with a full bladder for early pregnancy or pelvic scans
- A warm gel is applied to the skin or probe for clear imaging
- The exam usually takes about 15–30 minutes
- There is no downtime—you can resume normal activities immediately
Your provider will review the results with you, answer questions, and recommend any next steps if needed.
