What is an Ultrasound?

Ultrasound is a safe and non-invasive imaging test that uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time pictures of the inside of the body. It helps doctors detect diseased or damaged tissues, identify abnormal growths, and diagnose a wide range of medical conditions.

At International Radiology Centre (IRC), we provide advanced ultrasound services using the latest technology to deliver accurate results and a comfortable experience.

We are recognised by leading UAE insurers, making your scan both accessible and affordable.

What is a Doppler Ultrasound?

  • Digital X-Rays play a key role in diagnosing and monitoring many health conditions. With AI-assisted imaging, radiologists can detect even the smallest changes with greater precision. Common uses include:
    • Bone & Joint Injuries – Identifying fractures, dislocations, and arthritis.
    • Chest & Lungs – Detecting pneumonia, tuberculosis, and subtle lung abnormalities.
    • Dental & Oral Health – Spotting cavities, gum disease, and jaw irregularities.
    • Spinal & Musculoskeletal Disorders – Assessing scoliosis, herniated discs, and osteoporosis.
    • Abdominal Imaging – Identifying kidney stones, gallstones, and blockages.

What to Expect During an Ultrasound or Doppler

At IRC, your procedure will be straightforward and comfortable:

  • A water-based gel is applied to the skin over the area being examined.
  • A handheld device, called a transducer, is gently moved across the body to capture images.
  • For Doppler scans, sound patterns are recorded to analyse blood flow.
  • The procedure is painless, non-invasive, and radiation-free.

Once complete, you can return to your normal daily activities right away.

How to Prepare for Your Ultrasound

  • Most ultrasound scans require little or no preparation, but you should:
    • Arrive 15 minutes before your appointment to complete paperwork.
    • Wear loose, comfortable clothing.
    • Follow any special instructions provided (e.g., fasting for abdominal scans, or a full bladder for pelvic scans).
    • Inform the team if you have diabetes or other medical conditions that may affect the scan.

How Long Does It Take?

  • Ultrasound and Doppler procedures typically take 30–60 minutes, depending on the type of examination required.
