USG

USG enables the assessment of internal organs condition. Performing a thorough USG test is the basis for further diagnostics when there is a suspicion of various diseases. Abdominal USG allows for elimination of different ailments, which could have similar symptoms to the ones observed in our patient. If an efficient diagnosis is conducted facilitated by USG, proper medication can be administered as well as other activities. Thanks to USG, it is possible to cure or at least prevent the development of the disease.
