At Pasadena Health and Surgical Institute, our ultrasound services are designed to deliver precise and non-invasive diagnostic imaging for a wide range of medical conditions. Ultrasound, or sonography, uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of the inside of the body, helping doctors detect and monitor various health conditions. Here's a more detailed look at the types of ultrasound services we provide:
