An external ultrasound scan is most often used to examine the heart or an unborn baby in the womb. It can also be used to examine the liver, kidneys and other organs in the tummy and pelvis, as well as other organs or tissues that can be accessed through the skin, such as muscles and joints.
The main difference between echocardiograms and ultrasound is that an echocardiogram is usually performed by an expert cardiologist and is best used to diagnose some heart conditions. An ultrasound does not require a specialist but can be done by anyone trained in the procedure.
Procedure of USG
