What to Expect During Your Abdominal Ultrasound Appointment
Understanding the process helps you feel prepared and at ease. Here is a step-by-step guide to your abdominal ultrasound at our Davis location.
Scheduling Your Appointment
Call us or book online. We offer appointments within 48 hours and can accommodate urgent referrals from your physician.
Preparing for Your Scan
You will need to fast (no food or drink except water) for 8 to 12 hours before your abdominal ultrasound. This ensures the gallbladder is distended and the bowel is clear, allowing for optimal image quality. Your referring provider will give specific instructions.
During the Scan
You will lie on your back on an exam table. Warm gel is applied to your abdomen, and the sonographer uses a transducer to systematically image each organ. You may be asked to take deep breaths, change positions, or briefly hold your breath to improve visualization. The exam typically takes 30 to 45 minutes.
Receiving Your Results
A board-certified radiologist reviews all images and sends a comprehensive written report to your referring physician within 48 hours.
Follow-Up Care
Your doctor will review the findings with you and discuss any recommended next steps, such as additional imaging, lab work, or specialist referral.
Our Abdominal Ultrasound Capabilities
UltraVision Imaging offers a comprehensive range of abdominal ultrasound studies using advanced portable ultrasound systems. All exams are performed by RDMS-certified sonographers and interpreted by board-certified radiologists.
- Spleen Evaluation: Assessment of spleen size and morphology, important for patients with blood disorders, infections, or left upper quadrant symptoms.
- Gallbladder Ultrasound: Assessment for gallstones, gallbladder wall thickening, polyps, and biliary obstruction — a first-line diagnostic tool for gallbladder disease.
- Liver Evaluation: Screening for fatty liver disease, liver masses, hepatic cysts, and cirrhosis, including assessment of liver size and echogenicity.
- Renal Ultrasound: Detailed imaging of both kidneys and the urinary bladder, used to evaluate kidney stones, cysts, hydronephrosis, and renal masses.
- Complete Abdominal Ultrasound: A comprehensive evaluation of the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, kidneys, and abdominal aorta — the standard abdominal imaging exam.
