Ultrasound & Doppler
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.
