This is used to assess for a cause of abdominal pain. It analyses your liver, gallbladder, biliary tree, pancreas, spleen and kidneys and bladder. It can also assess your central large blood vessels. In men it may also be able to assess your prostate gland (but this is not the best form of scan for the prostate gland) and in women, it may be able to assess your uterus and ovaries (as long as they are not obscured by overlying bowel gas or adipose tissue- hence, to adequately assess your pelvic organs, we would recommend a transvaginal ultrasound scan. An ultrasound scan cannot assess for appendix, bowel or bone disorders.
