Deciphering the results of the ultrasound, learn the norms of ultrasound during pregnancy and what pathologies can tell the ultrasound of vessels, hearts and abdominal cavities.

Decoding ultrasound results
Ultrasound — Safe and affordable non-invasive body examination method. Ultrasound examination can be two-, three- and four-dimensional. Echography allows you to explore the condition of the organs of a small pelvis, heart, glands, urinary system, abdominal cavity, vessels and condition and development of the fetus (during pregnancy).
Ultrasound during pregnancy reveals the presence of the fetus of vices at an early stage, its prelationship and development parameters, the condition of the ammunition and placenta, as well as the state of the small pellets of the mother. Pregnant women undergo a procedure for about the 11th, 20th and 31st weeks.
Ultrasound indicators for normal fetal development
| Growth, see | Weight, G | BPR (biparital head size) | DB (thigh length) | DGRK (chest length) | |
| 11th week | 6.8 | eleven | 18 | 7 | twenty |
| 20th week | 24,1 | 345 | 47 | 34 | 48 |
| 31nd week | 41,1 | 1779 | 80 | 61 | 81 |
Deciphering the results of the ultrasound of the vessels of the head and neck in the presence of pathology
- Uneven artery echogenicity, thickened wall of the vessel and stenosis ≤ twenty % → Non-defensive atherosclerosis of brachiocephalic arteries.
- The presence of atherosclerotic plaques (can be a source of embolism and cause stroke) → Stenzing atherosclerosis.
- Thickening and disorders of the layers of the vessel walls → Vasculit.
- Fistula between arterial and venous channel → Arterio-venous malformations.
Decoding the results of abdominal ultrasound in pathologies
Liver
- Increased organ echlority (small foci) → Hepatosis.
- Increased body and echo absorption (large foci), gorgeous and splenic veins are expanded, ascites are detected → cirrhosis of the liver.
- Expanding the hollow vein and the absence of its essences on the breath, enlarged liver → Constant phenomena due to pulmonary or cardiac pathology.
- Foci with violation of echostructure → Possible tumors or abscesses.
Gallbladder and pancreas
- Wall thickening (double contour, possibly the presence of a liquid around the gallbladder) → acute or chronic cholecystitis.
- Echonegative objects with acoustic shadow, thickened wall → Calculse cholecystitis.
- Reducing pancreatic echogenicity → Acute pancreatitis.
- Increased pancreas → Chronic pancreatitis or cancer.
Spleen
- Increased spleen → Possible blood and liver diseases, infection.
- Fabric seal organ → Siezen's heart attack.
- Ultrasound allows you to see the separation of the spleen in the case of an increased body.
Indicators of the ultrasound of the heart of the heart are individual and evaluated by the attending cardiologist.
Some types of ultrasound require special training that needs to be coordinated with a specialist. Ultrasonic diagnostics doctor, — Sonologist.
