How does the examination proceed?

Abdominal ultrasound is a completely painless and safe examination that takes approximately 15–30 minutes:

  1. 1You lie on your back on the examination table.
  2. 2The doctor applies a transparent gel to the abdominal skin, which improves contact between the probe and the body.
  3. 3The probe emits high-frequency sound waves that reflect off tissues and organs.
  4. 4The image of internal organs is displayed in real time on the screen.
  5. 5The doctor systematically examines all abdominal organs and assesses their condition.

Ultrasound does not use ionising radiation – suitable for all age groups, including pregnant women and children.

Preparation for abdominal ultrasound

For optimal examination results, please follow these instructions:

Fast beforehand

Do not eat for at least 6 hours before the examination. You may drink small amounts of water.

Drink fluids

Before the examination, it is recommended to drink 2–3 glasses of water so that the bladder is full. A full bladder improves the visibility of the lower abdominal organs.

Comfortable clothing

Wear clothing that allows easy access to the abdomen.

Bring documentation

If you have previous reports or images, please bring them with you.

Why fast?

Fasting reduces the amount of gas in the digestive tract and improves organ visibility.
