Ultrasound

Ultrasound is a technique that allows the capture of images from ultrasound waves

It is an important tool for the diagnosis and monitoring of many pathologies. The test is painless, fast and accessible, and does not imply any risk for the patient.

At Marti-Torres Clinic, this test is always done by a specialist in diagnostic radiology, who will provide both images and a detailed examination report.

In addition to being used for diagnostic purposes, ultrasound is also used as a guide in performing biopsies, infiltrations and preoperative markings.

The most frequent punctures are breast cysts and thyroid nodules, and can also be performed from other locations.

Artro-Resonance/ Computed Tomography Arthrography
