General Ultrasound at Tarlac Medical Center
Ultrasound, also known as sonography, is a safe and non-invasive imaging procedure that uses sound waves to produce real-time images of internal organs, soft tissues, and blood flow. At Tarlac Medical Center, our general ultrasound services support accurate diagnosis, monitoring, and clinical decision-making across various medical specialties.
We provide a wide range of diagnostic and procedural ultrasound examinations using hospital-grade equipment, performed by trained professionals with strict quality and safety standards.
What Is an Ultrasound?
Ultrasound imaging uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize internal structures without radiation exposure. It is commonly requested for abdominal, pelvic, obstetric, vascular, and soft tissue evaluation.
Ultrasound examinations are used to:
- Assess abdominal and pelvic organs
- Monitor pregnancy and fetal development
- Evaluate blood flow and vascular structures
- Guide minimally invasive procedures
Ultrasound Procedures Offered
OB Ultrasound
OB Ultrasound is performed to monitor pregnancy and assess fetal growth and development. It helps evaluate gestational age, fetal position, and overall pregnancy health as requested by the attending physician.
2D Echo Ultrasound
2D Echo Ultrasound uses sound waves to evaluate the structure and function of the heart. It assists physicians in assessing cardiac chambers, valves, and blood flow patterns.
Duplex Ultrasound
Duplex Ultrasound combines traditional ultrasound and Doppler imaging to evaluate blood flow within arteries and veins. It is commonly used to assess vascular conditions and circulation concerns.
Ultrasound-Guided Biopsy
Ultrasound-guided biopsy uses real-time imaging to accurately guide a needle to a target area for tissue sampling. This approach supports precise, minimally invasive diagnostic procedures.
Ultrasound-Guided IR Biopsy
Ultrasound-guided interventional radiology (IR) biopsy procedures are performed in coordination with specialized teams to ensure accuracy, safety, and proper post-procedure care.
Abdominal and Pelvic Ultrasound
Abdominal ultrasound and pelvic sonography are commonly requested to evaluate organs such as the liver, gallbladder, kidneys, bladder, uterus, and ovaries.
These examinations include:
- Whole abdomen ultrasound / sonography
- KUB sonography
- Pelvic ultrasound (including transvaginal and transrectal ultrasound, when indicated)
Preparation instructions may vary depending on the type of examination.
