What is Sonography?
Sonography, also known as ultrasound imaging, is a safe and non-invasive diagnostic procedure that uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of the inside of the body. At Iris Obstetrics & Gynecology, we utilize advanced sonographic technology to monitor fetal development, assess gynecological conditions, and provide crucial insights into your health.

- Versatile Applications: Used for a variety of diagnostic purposes, from pregnancy scans to detecting abnormalities.
- Non-Invasive: A painless procedure with no need for incisions or injections.

Addressing Common Concerns
We understand that undergoing any medical procedure can be daunting. Here are some common questions and concerns patients have about sonography:
Is Sonography Safe?
Yes, sonography is a safe procedure with no known risks to you or your baby. It has been widely used in prenatal care for decades.
How Should I Prepare for My Sonography Appointment?
Generally, no special preparation is needed for a sonography scan. However, if a transabdominal ultrasound imaging is needed, you may be asked to drink water before the exam to ensure better image quality. Our team will provide specific instructions based on the type of scan you are scheduled for.
