Ultrasound imaging—also called sonography —is a safe and painless procedure that uses sound waves to produce high quality images of various organ symptoms such as the heart, blood vessels, liver, gallbladder, kidneys, spleen & uterus. Because ultrasound uses sound waves instead of radiation to produce images, ultrasound specializes in the visualization of the anatomical structures found in the female pelvis and unborn children. 

 With West Feliciana Hospital’s GE Logiq E9 XDclear 2.0 Ultrasound system, virtually every element of the imaging chain, from the pulse of the probes to the clarity of the pixels, has been rethought resulting in our highest level of imaging yet. Used as a crucial tool for obstetrics and to examine vital organs, blood vessels, thyroid, kidney, or gallbladder, it provides physicians information to guide decisions that enhance clinical confidence. Ultrasound appointments are required.
