Abdomen Ultrasound in Appleton, WI
Looking for a safe, accurate, and non-invasive way to get answers about your health? At You Kiss We Tell Ultrasound in Appleton, Wisconsin, we specialize in abdomen ultrasound services that help detect, diagnose, and monitor conditions affecting the organs in your abdominal area.
What is an Abdomen Ultrasound?
An abdomen ultrasound is a painless imaging test that uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time pictures of the organs and blood vessels inside your abdomen. Unlike X-rays or CT scans, ultrasounds don’t use radiation—making them a safe option for patients of all ages.
​
This test allows your healthcare provider to evaluate:
-
Liver (size, shape, cysts, tumors, or damage)
-
Gallbladder (stones, blockages, inflammation)
-
Pancreas (abnormal growths, swelling, or cysts)
-
Kidneys (stones, cysts, masses, or infections)
-
Spleen (enlargement or injury)
-
Blood Vessels (such as the abdominal aorta, to check for aneurysms)
Why might you need an Abdominal Ultrasound?
Your doctor may recommend an abdominal ultrasound to help:
-
Investigate pain, swelling, or bloating in the abdomen
-
Detect gallstones, kidney stones, or liver disease
-
Monitor organ function and blood flow
-
Check for abdominal masses or tumors
-
Guide certain procedures like biopsies
Early detection is critical. An abdomen ultrasound provides quick, reliable results that support accurate diagnoses and effective treatment planning.
