Abstract

Ultrasonography is a simple, non-invasive, provides dynamic imaging which helps in diagnosis as well as therapeutic mode of action of the area of interest. Ultrasound device uses a transducer to convert electrical impulses to high-frequency ultrasound waves and the reflected sonic waves is recorded and used for diagnostic purposes. Ultrasonography has proven its worth over the time as the diagnostic modality in the field of medical imaging and is constantly being upgraded by 3D visualization and the use of contrast. However, it still lacks the power of being a primary standalone diagnostic tool. Further, its use as a therapeutic modality is being recognized and appreciated and is soon to become the preferred choice without any adjuncts for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
