Kidney ultrasound is a painless and safe method to examine the health of the kidneys and urinary system. With 3D/4D technology, this examination is elevated to a new level, offering sharper and more detailed images. Doctors can visualize the kidney structures in all dimensions and angles, leading to more accurate diagnoses.

Benefits of 3D/4D Kidney Ultrasound

  • High-Resolution and Detailed Images Enables detection of abnormalities that might not be visible with 2D ultrasound.
  • Accurate Diagnosis Viewing in all dimensions helps doctors analyze and diagnose conditions precisely.
  • Blood Flow Assessment Capable of evaluating blood flow within the kidneys and related vessels.
  • Reduced Examination Time Clear images speed up the examination and diagnosis process.

Procedure of 3D/4D Kidney Ultrasound

  1. Preparation Generally, no special preparation is needed. However, drinking plenty of water to fill the bladder can help produce clearer images.
  2. Applying Ultrasound Gel The doctor applies gel to the skin over your lower abdomen or back to facilitate sound wave transmission.
