Ultrasound
added
Early this year, South Huron
Hospital introduced ultrasound in
the radiology department.
Contrary to many beliefs, ultra-
sound can be used more extensive-
ly than just for obstetrics and
gynaecological diagnoses. However,
this is the field which has received
the broadest utilization. The principal
is to project images on a screen or
simultaneously on a series of black
and white photographs by transmit-
ting photographs by transmitting
waves.
The process is painless and does
not expose the patient to radiation.
It is very effective for examining all
soft tissue such as liver, kidney, gall
bladder and pancreas, as well as be-
ing able to detect problems of the
heart and thyroid.
This equipment eliminates the
need to travel to London for there
diagnostic procedures.
