Ultrasound clinic

Main information

Ultrasonography is a modern non-invasive method that uses the physical properties of ultrasound and therefore does not burden the patient with radiation. Its versatile possibilities of use and patient safety even during any number of control examinations have helped ultrasound to take an important place among diagnostic imaging methods. Ultrasonography has a wide range of examinations that can be used in both adults and children.
