Regular Sonography – The Key to Early Diagnosis and Safer Health Outcomes #MahavirHospitalKamshet #DrVikeshMutha
Kamshet, Pune District: In today’s fast-paced life, many people ignore early warning signs of disease until it becomes serious. One simple, non-invasive tool that can detect problems at an early stage is sonography (ultrasound scanning).
According to Dr Vikesh Mutha, from Mahavir Hospital, Kamshet, regular sonography has become a crucial part of modern preventive healthcare especially for pregnant women, abdominal complaints, and chronic illnesses.
“Sonography is completely safe and radiation-free. It allows us to ‘see’ what’s happening inside the body without surgery or pain. Regular scans can detect problems before they turn serious,” says Dr Mutha.
What Is Sonography?
Sonography or ultrasound scanning uses high-frequency sound waves to produce live images of internal organs, blood flow, and soft tissues.
It helps doctors assess the condition of:
-
Liver, kidney, pancreas and gallbladder
-
Uterus, ovaries and pregnancy development
-
Urinary bladder and prostate
-
Thyroid, soft tissue swellings or lymph nodes
-
Heart (Echocardiography) and blood vessels (Doppler studies)
Sonography During Pregnancy
One of the most well-known uses of sonography is antenatal care.
Regular scans help monitor:
-
Growth and development of the baby
-
Placental health and amniotic fluid
-
Position of the baby before delivery
-
Early detection of complications like twin pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy, or growth retardation
“Every pregnant woman should undergo sonography as advised by her gynaecologist. It ensures the mother and baby’s safety at every stage,” Dr Mutha emphasises.
Early Detection Saves Lives
Many life-threatening conditions start silently liver disorders, kidney stones, gallbladder stones, or abdominal tumours.
“Through regular ultrasound check-ups, these diseases can be identified at an early, treatable stage,” explains Dr Mutha.
He adds that sonography is especially useful for patients with:
-
Persistent abdominal pain
-
Frequent urination or urinary infection
-
Unexplained weight loss
-
Swelling or lumps
-
History of diabetes or hypertension
