- Soft tissue: lumps, cysts and lipomas before minor surgery
- Kidney and bladder: stones, urine retention and prostate evaluation
How do I prepare for each type of study?

- 3Images and measurements are taken; the study lasts 15 to 30 minutes.
- 4The medical team reviews the images and explains the findings in Spanish.
Is ultrasound safe?
