Ultrasound diagnostics
We offer a very wide range of ultrasound examinations, which include orthopaedic and internal ultrasound. The possibility of using various types of ends allows for extensive diagnostics. The camera is equipped with many modern solutions.
Orthopaedic ultrasound diagnostics
Orthopaedic ultrasound, i.e. an ultrasound of the motor organs, allows for a non-invasive determination of diseases and abnormalities in the musculoskeletal system. During the examination, we can assess the soft tissues of the joints, muscles, tendons and nerves in the vicinity of the examined area. It is also possible to dynamically assess the tissues: tendon and muscle movement, joint movement, and ligament stability assessment. The ultrasound examination also allows to visualize the increased vascularization of the diseased tissues – e.g. the inflamed synovial membrane of the joints. Ultrasound examinations in the field of orthopaedics are performed by Beata Ciszkowska-Łysoń, MD, PhD.

Internal ultrasound diagnostics
Soft tissue ultrasound examination allows for the assessment of the internal organs, their structure, and size. With high-resolution imaging, we can detect abnormalities and diseases in the body. Such an examination is safe and completely non-invasive. Warning signs of various abnormalities may include pain symptoms (e.g., abdominal pain), detectable changes within a dysfunctional organ, weight loss, diarrhea, vomiting, loss of appetite, etc.
In the field of internal ultrasound we perform, among others:
– Testicular Ultrasound
– Soft Tissue Ultrasound
– Breast Ultrasound
– Breast Ultrasound With Elastography
– Liver Elastography
– Thyroid Ultrasound
– Urinary System Ultrasound
– Urinary System With Assessment Of The Prostate Ultrasoud
– Salivary Gland Ultrasound
– Lymph Nodes Ultrasound
– Abdominal Ultrasound
– Pleural Ultrasound
– Doppler Ultrasound Of The Artery Of The Upper Limb (1 Area)
– Doppler Ultrasound Of The Veins Of The Upper Limb (1 Area)
– Doppler Ultrasound Of The Cartoid And Vertebral Arteries
– Abdominal Wall Ultrasound
– Doppler Ultrasound Of The Artery Of The Lower Limb (1 Area)
– Doppler Ultrasound Of The Visceral Artery
– Doppler Ultrasound Of The Portal System
– Lung Ultrasound
– Doppler Ultrasound Of The Abdominal Aorta And Ilical Artery
– Doppler Ultrasound Of The Renal Artery
– Doppler Ultrasound Of The Veins Of The Lower Limb (1 Area)
– Doppler Ultrasound Of Other Areas Of Artery Or Venous Vesselsb

Infant hip ultrasound
Infant hip ultrasound is a procedure aimed at assessing the condition of the hip joints in infants. It is completely painless, non-invasive, and does not require any special preparation. It is one of the fundamental examinations performed in the first few weeks of a child’s life. The ultrasound examination aims to exclude abnormalities in the development of the infant’s hips, including hip dysplasia. Early detection of hip dysplasia allows for complete treatment.

PREPARATION FOR ULTRASOUND EXAMINATION – PATIENT INFORMATION
In order to ensure your health and safety, please familiarize yourself with the following information regarding imaging and laboratory examinations and adhere to the mentioned guidelines.
GENERAL INFORMATION REGARDING ALL IMAGING EXAMINATIONS
1. It is advisable to arrive approximately 15 minutes before the scheduled appointment to allow time for filling out consent forms and questionnaires prior to the examination.
2. Patients should provide the results of previous diagnostic tests, if available.
3. It is recommended to wear clothing that can be easily removed or rolled up to expose the area of the body being examined.
4. During the examination, it is important to follow all instructions given by the radiologist, technician, or other medical personnel in the facility.
5. Children and adolescents under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a legal guardian or authorized person for diagnostic examinations.
ABDOMINAL ULTRASOUND EXAMINATION
To properly prepare for the appointment, the last meal should be consumed at least 4 hours before the examination.
URINARY BLADDER ULTRASOUND EXAMINATION
Prior to the examination, it is advised not to empty the urinary bladder for an extended period of time.
Please sit calmly for approximately 1 hour. The initial part of the examination will be performed with a full bladder. Subsequently, the doctor will inform you to empty the bladder in order to complete the examination.
PREPARATION FOR LIVER ELASTOGRAPHY
1. Avoid strenuous physical activity for 24 hours prior to the exam.
2. Fast for 6 hours before the exam: do not eat, drink, smoke, or chew gum. Arrive with an empty bladder.
3. Remain at rest for 10 minutes before the exam: sit quietly, do not talk, write, or read (please arrive at the registration desk well in advance)
For the examination, the patient must bring a previous abdominal ultrasound (no older than 6 months), which can also be performed on the same day of the examination immediately before the elastography. If the patient has previously undergone liver elastography or FibroScan – they must also bring the results of those tests.
