Breast implants are not life-long devices. Breast augmentation surgeons need a tool to follow their patients as their implants age and evaluate patients with breast implant complications. Office-based ultrasounds are affordable, portable, and the learning curve is short. Studies show high-resolution ultrasound (HRUS) is as good or better than MRI in the detection of implant rupture. Surgeons who perform primary and revision breast augmentation are encouraged to incorporate HRUS in their practice.

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...
