More Frequently Asked Questions
Is any preparation required?
Yes, a full bladder is required for better visualization.
- – Drink 3–4 glasses of water about 30–45 minutes before your appointment.
- – Do not urinate until after the scan is completed.
A full bladder pushes the intestines aside and helps the sound waves get a clearer image of pelvic organs.
How is the scan performed?
- – You’ll lie on your back on the ultrasound table.
- – A clear gel will be applied to your lower abdomen.
- – The sonographer or radiologist will move a small transducer probe over your skin.
- – The scan is painless, non-invasive, and takes 10–15 minutes.
What is the difference between abdominal and pelvic scan?
- – Abdominal scan shows upper organs (like liver, kidneys, spleen, pancreas).
- – Pelvic scan focuses on lower organs (like uterus, ovaries, prostate, bladder).
Sometimes, both are combined as a whole abdomen scan for complete evaluation.
Is it safe?
Yes.
Ultrasound uses sound waves, not radiation, making it completely safe — even for pregnant women and children.
When will I get my report?
Reports are usually ready within 30–45 minutes after the scan.
Are there different types of pelvic scans?
Yes. Depending on your doctor’s advice, one of the following may be done:
- – Transabdominal Pelvic Ultrasound – done over the lower abdomen (requires full bladder).
- – Transvaginal Ultrasound (TVS) – done with a thin internal probe for clearer uterine and ovarian details (used for infertility, early pregnancy, or bleeding issues).
- – Transrectal Ultrasound (TRUS) – done for detailed prostate evaluation in men.
All are safe and performed under professional supervision with patient comfort ensured.
What can this scan detect?
The scan can help identify:
- – Uterine fibroids or endometrial thickening
- – Ovarian cysts or masses
- – Pelvic inflammatory disease
- – Prostate enlargement
- – Urinary bladder wall abnormalities or residual urine
- – Free fluid in the pelvis
- – Follicular growth and ovulation timing (in infertility)
Will the scan cause any pain or discomfort?
No, the procedure is painless.
You may feel mild discomfort due to a full bladder, but that eases right after the scan when you can empty it.
Summary
A USG Lower Abdomen / Pelvis scan is a simple, safe, and effective way to evaluate reproductive and urinary organs.
At Mitra Diagnostics, we ensure accurate imaging, patient comfort, and complete privacy during every scan.
