    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is a Small Parts Ultrasound?

    A Small Parts Ultrasound is a safe, painless imaging test that examines small, specific areas of the body such as the thyroid, breast, testicles, salivary glands, lymph nodes, and soft tissue lumps. It helps detect abnormalities like cysts, tumors, infections, or inflammation.

    Is the Small Parts Ultrasound Safe?

    Yes! Ultrasound uses sound waves, not radiation, making it completely safe for all patients, including children and pregnant women.

    Which Body Areas are Covered in a Small Parts Ultrasound?

    At Sarvagya Diagnostic, Small Parts Ultrasound includes:
    Thyroid gland (for nodules, goiter, inflammation)
    Breast (for lumps, cysts, fibroadenomas)
    Scrotum and Testicles (for swelling, pain, torsion, tumors)
    Salivary Glands (for stones, infections)
    Lymph Nodes (for enlargement or infections)
