Ultrasound
Ultrasound or Sonogram, is an imaging modality that’s based on sound waves to scan internal organs, muscles, and tendons. The scan involves placing a small amount of gel on your skin surface and then using a probe to analyze the area. There is no radiation exposure through ultrasounds.
Mammography
Mammography is an X-ray of the breast using specialized equipment. It is useful in detecting early signs of breast cancer. Physicians recommend women over 40 should be getting regular mammograms done for early detection, but in India there is a growing incidence of breast cancer at younger ages. We recommend you consult your doctor if you’re over the age of 30 to seek their advice.
X-Ray
X-rays are part of the electromagnetic spectrum of waves and carry radiation. They are useful in medical diagnostics because different parts of the body absorb x-rays differently. Bones absorb the most, and therefore X-rays are best for detecting bone fractures. Typically the small amount of radiation exposure from Xrays is considered safe for adults, but may not be for developing babies. Therefore, make sure to tell your doctor if you’re pregnant and need an Xray.
Dental X-Ray
Dental Xray is an X-ray of the teeth, jaw, bones and soft tissue in the area to try to find problems. They are often done if one’s having dental problems, or before/after dental treatment to see how things are looking.
