Adrenal ultrasound is an examination that allows for the investigation of the condition of these organs and is an important component in establishing or confirming a diagnosis by the treating physician.

INDICATIONS FOR ADRENAL ULTRASOUND

The main indication for this examination is suspicion of adrenal gland disease, particularly in the presence of laboratory confirmed changes in hormone levels, as well as after abdominal trauma.

Symptoms that a person may experience include:

Chronic high or low blood pressure, rapid blood pressure changes

Muscle weakness

Menstrual cycle disturbances

Libido disorders

Significant weight changes

Frequent headaches

Excessive body hair growth

Pain in the lower back

WHAT AN ADRENAL ULTRASOUND WILL SHOW

The diagnostician will identify and describe any pathological formations or changes, including:

Enlargement of the adrenal glands (adrenal hyperplasia)

Benign and malignant formations

Cysts.

Hematomas.

PREPARATION FOR ADRENAL ULTRASOUND

Preparation is similar to that for a regular ultrasound of abdominal organs – 2-3 days before the procedure, try to exclude foods that promote gas formation (all legumes, black bread, carbonated drinks) from your diet.

This examination has no contraindications and can be performed for people of any age.

The diagnostic process takes 10 minutes. Adrenal ultrasound is a painless and fast procedure.
