What is Ultrasound?

Ultrasound imaging uses sound waves to produce images of specific organs or structures within the body.

Why get an Ultrasound? 

It's a non-invasive medical test that allows radiologists capture images that aid in diagnosing conditions without the use of radiation. Because ultrasound images are captured in real time, they can also show organs functioning, as well as blood flow. 

The Technology:

University of Vermont Health Network - Alice Hyde Medical Center utilzes a Phillips IU22 ultrasound machine. It delivers optimal imaging resolution and 3D imagery.

Alice Hyde uses a GE Voluson 730 with obstetric patients to perform pre-natal scans throughout the course of pregnancy. This device also offers 3D imagery.

Operational Hours:

Ultrasounds can be scheduled Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.
