Does an ultrasound hurt?
An ultrasound does not hurt, however, we always encourage our patients to let us know if they feel discomfort at any point of their exam. Ultrasounds are non-invasive, gentle methods typically involving a warm gel and a transducer (hand held device) to obtain images through sound waves. Most of the "discomfort" is mainly from the preparation like having to hold a full bladder for a pregnancy ultrasound or a pelvic exam until images are taken.
Am I allowed to bring someone with me to my scan?
Absolutely! We invite anyone to come as long as the patient is comfortable ⭐ However, children under 5 must be accompanied by an adult.
How long does an exam usually take?
Depending on the ultrasound they may range between 25-45 minutes. Most diagnostic exams usually take longer due to the details necessary for the exam. We also take into account any questions you may have and any preparation necessary during and after your exam.
What preparation is required for my exam?
OB DIAGNOSTIC EXAMS = FULL BLADDER
ABDOMINAL EXAMS= FAST 6-8 HOURS BEFORE YOUR EXAM
TRANSVAGINAL EXAMS= EMPTY BLADDER
2D/3D ELECTIVE EXAMS= EAT OR DRINK SOMETHING SWEET TO ENCOURAGE BABY MOVEMENTS
How soon will I get my results?
We pride ourselves in being timely our reports typically take about 1-2 days, however, during high volume weeks we may take up to 3 days. We deliver all final reports and images through the email on file, phone number on file, and referring doctor/provider.
Will I get my images the day of?
Yes! You will automatically receive a photostrip images for all OB Diagnostic and Elective Exams. For all other exams you can request the photostrip. All exams receive free digital images sent through your email and phone number.
