Abdominal Ultrasound Scan

Fast, painless, and radiation-free imaging of your abdominal organs — for accurate diagnosis and early treatment.

At Koshikaa, we offer expert abdominal ultrasound scans that give your doctor a clear, real-time view of the organs inside your abdomen. Using high-frequency sound waves, this safe and non-invasive test helps detect, diagnose, and monitor a wide range of health conditions — from gallstones and kidney stones to liver disease and more.

What Is an Abdominal Ultrasound?

An abdominal ultrasound is a medical imaging test that uses sound waves — not radiation — to produce detailed images of the structures inside your belly. A handheld device called a transducer is gently moved across your abdomen, sending sound waves that bounce off internal tissues to create real-time pictures on a monitor.

It is one of the most widely recommended diagnostic tools because it is:

  • Safe — no radiation exposure

  • Painless — completely non-invasive

  • Quick — typically completed in 15–30 minutes

  • Affordable — cost-effective compared to CT or MRI scans

Organs Examined in an Abdominal Ultrasound

A complete abdominal ultrasound at Koshikaa evaluates the following structures:

  • Liver — checks for fatty liver, cirrhosis, tumors, or abnormal function

  • Gallbladder — detects gallstones, inflammation (cholecystitis), or bile duct obstruction

  • Kidneys — identifies kidney stones, cysts, hydronephrosis, or kidney disease

  • Pancreas — assesses for pancreatitis or pancreatic masses

  • Spleen — evaluates enlargement (splenomegaly) or injury

  • Bladder — checks for stones or urinary retention

  • Abdominal Aorta & Blood Vessels — screens for aortic aneurysm or abnormal blood flow

  • Bile Ducts — identifies blockages or dilation

Your doctor may recommend this scan if you experience any of the following:

  • Unexplained abdominal pain, bloating, or swelling

  • Nausea, vomiting, or indigestion that persists

  • Jaundice (yellowing of skin or eyes)

  • Suspected gallstones or kidney stones

  • Abnormal liver function test results

  • Frequent urinary tract infections or blood in urine

  • Monitoring of known liver, kidney, or pancreatic conditions

  • Sudden or severe abdominal pain (acute abdomen)

  • Screening for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)

How to Prepare for Your Pregnancy Scan

Proper preparation ensures the clearest possible images:
  • Fast for 6–8 hours before the scan — avoid food and drinks (water is usually permitted) to prevent gas and ensure the gallbladder is fully visible

  • Avoid smoking before the scan as it can cause air swallowing and increase gas

  • Wear loose, comfortable clothing for easy abdominal access

  • Inform us of any medications you are currently taking

  • Bring previous reports, doctor’s prescription, and any relevant blood test results

  • For bladder assessment, you may be asked to come with a full bladder — drink 2–3 glasses of water 1 hour prior and avoid urinating.

What to Expect During the Procedure

Your abdominal ultrasound at Koshikaa is simple, comfortable, and takes 15–30 minutes:

  1. You lie on your back (or side) on a comfortable examination table

A standard abdominal ultrasound takes 15–30 minutes depending on the organs being examined.

Will I get the results the same day?

Yes. At Koshikaa, reports are typically ready within 2–4 hours of your scan.

Do I need a doctor's referral?

A referral is recommended but not mandatory. Our radiologist will guide you through the appropriate scan for your symptoms.
