2) Ultrasound (Sonogram)
This technology uses soundwaves to create an image. Most people have seen this while having a pregnancy sonogramed.
Ultrasound is used in my practice to
-diagnose pregnancy (as early as 14-15 days)
-ultrasound wounds, abscesses, or hematomas (from trauma)
-scan tendons and ligaments for tears or swelling
-examine internal organs (lungs, liver, spleen, intestines, bladder, kidneys, etc. for disease
Ultrasound is portable and the only requirement is electricity!
