Medical Ultrasound in Montreal – DiagnostiX Private Ultrasound Clinic

At our private ultrasound clinic in Montreal, we offer comprehensive services and a wide range of ultrasounds. An ultrasound procedure is an effective diagnostic tool that captures real-time images of the internal organs using high-frequency sound waves. This technique is also known as sonography. It is a popular method of diagnosis because it does not cause discomfort and does not need incisions, needles, or other invasive procedures. One of Montreal’s most efficient ultrasound clinics, DiagnostiX ensures that every ultrasound procedure gets done with optimal precision. Each patient is guaranteed to get a comfortable experience.

Types of Ultrasounds We Offer

At DiagnostiX, we provide different types of ultrasound services to our clients. We offer two broad types of ultrasounds, including general ultrasound and specialized ultrasound. 

General Ultrasound

• Abdominal Ultrasound: This type of ultrasound examines the abdominal organs, including the liver, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas, and kidneys. It diagnoses pain, unexplained swelling, or helps to identify infection in the abdomen. If you are looking for an abdominal ultrasound in Montreal, our experts are here to provide you with all the support you need. 

• Pelvic Ultrasound: Pelvic ultrasound is executed by a transabdominal or transvaginal approach to access the pelvic organs, such as the uterus, the ovaries, and the bladder. Patients look for a pelvic ultrasound in Montreal to find the causes behind pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, and other menstrual issues. 

• Thyroid and Neck Ultrasound: In a typical thyroid and neck ultrasound, sound waves form a real-time picture of the thyroid and neck. It helps find nodules, cysts, inflammation, or lymph nodes.

• Testicular and Prostate Ultrasound: To identify abnormalities in the testicles and scrotum, including testicular cancer, testicular ultrasound is considered a key diagnostic tool. A transrectal ultrasound is also offered to inspect the prostate gland and surrounding tissues in men. 

• Hernia Ultrasound: This ultrasound identifies anomalies present in the abdomen, including abdominal or inguinal hernia. 

• Surface Ultrasound: This ultrasound is ideal for lymph nodes, salivary glands, and unexplained masses

Specialized Ultrasound

• Breast Ultrasound: This specialized ultrasound is an effective diagnostic tool to examine the breasts for deformity. Breast ultrasound is often conducted with the support of mammography to identify issues like breast cancer. 
• Musculoskeletal Ultrasound: To manage and identify musculoskeletal conditions, ultrasound is considered a great option. It helps to identify and diagnose issues in muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints. 

• Pediatric Ultrasound: Pediatric ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that is used to diagnose internal organs of a child. 

• Obstetric Ultrasound: The obstetric ultrasound is performed during pregnancy to monitor the development of the fetus, assess the fetus’s health, and determine the due date of the pregnancy. Furthermore, it also detects potential complications that may happen during pregnancy.  

• Venous Doppler Ultrasound: A venous Doppler ultrasound is a type of ultrasound test that identifies blood flow in the veins, specifically in the legs and arms. It is used to measure the movement of blood through the vessels. It detects blockage, clot formations, and vein abnormalities. 
• Radiation-free Hysterosalpingography (HSG): This service will be available soon to evaluate fallopian tube patency as part of fertility assessments. 

Trust our team of experienced sonographers and radiologists to deal with every patient and every case with care, safety, and precision. Accurate ultrasound results, every time.

• Pregnancy: Your doctor may order an Ultrasound to examine the fetus’s health. Ultrasound is also done to check the due date or to recognize complications.

• Pelvic Ultrasound: Ultrasound also helps to determine the reasons behind irregular periods, pelvic pain, ovarian cysts, or reasons for infertility.

What Patients Can Expect During an Ultrasound?

Preparation

Patients are instructed on specific preparations, which depend on the type of ultrasound they are going to undergo. While some types of ultrasounds require no preparation at all, some do. For example, during the ultrasound of the pelvis, you will be instructed to fill your bladder by drinking water before the test. In each step, our expert lab technicians and imagists will work with you. 

During the Procedure

You will be asked to lie on your back, and the technician will apply a small amount of water-based gel on the area to be scanned. Then, a handheld transducer or probe will be moved over the skin to get the images. You may be asked to hold your breath or stay still for some time. 

After the Procedure

Once the image is captured, the technician will wipe off the remaining gel on your skin. Do not shy away from asking if you have any questions. Our team believes in transparency, and we actively vouch for it.
