Abstract:
Ultrasonography has become an increasingly valuable and promising tool for performing image-guided spine interventions. The increase in the use of ultrasound utilization has led to more studies evaluating ultrasound-guided interventional spine procedures in comparison to fluoroscopy and computed tomography. Several studies have investigated the use of ultrasound for lumbosacral pain management procedures with favorable outcomes.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
