Color Doppler Ultrasonography

Color doppler, one of the ultrasound imaging techniques, is used to detect blood flow in the vessels and to image organs within the body using high-frequency sound waves. First, sound waves are sent through the probe. Likewise, the returning sound waves are collected by the probe and converted into electrical energy. It is also converted into an image by computer. It is used in the examination of many parts of the body. The main areas of use are; It can be summarized as intra-abdominal organs, superficial organs such as thyroid gland, breast, pregnancy follow-up, heart, arteries and veins.

In our center, ultrasonography devices with the technology developed by GE (Logic 9) and Siemens (Antares, Sequia) companies between 2003 and 2005 are used and their up-grades are carried out continuously. Many early-stage diseases that were not seen before can be diagnosed and treated. Thanks to its high resolution, it facilitates US-guided biopsy and directs the treatment.
