An ultrasound of the whole abdomen is a non-invasive imaging procedure used to evaluate the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, kidneys, urinary bladder, and other abdominal structures. It utilizes high-frequency sound waves to produce real-time images, helping detect abnormalities such as fatty liver, gallstones, renal calculi, cysts, tumors, or free fluid in the abdomen. The examination is performed with the patient in a supine position after fasting for several hours to reduce bowel gas and ensure optimal visualization. The study assesses organ size, shape, echotexture, and the presence of any focal lesions or ductal dilatation. It also evaluates the urinary bladder and, in males, the prostate; in females, the uterus and adnexa. Ultrasound is safe, painless, and free from radiation, making it ideal for routine screening and follow-up. Overall, a whole abdomen ultrasound provides valuable diagnostic information about the abdominal organs and helps guide further management.
