pregnant woman undergoing ultrasoundWhat are the best Ultrasound machine for gynaecology? Ultrasound machines work on the principle of sound waves. They produce images of the internal structures of the body by bouncing off ultrasonic waves at body structures and detecting the echoes that bounce back. These sound waves are above the audible range of human hearing. Ultrasound was first used for clinical purposes in 1956 in Glasgow. Obstetrician Ian Donald and engineer Tom Brown developed the first ultrasound using the intelligence of an instrument used to detect industrial flaws in ships. They perfected its clinical use, and by the end of the 1950s, ultrasound was routinely used in Glasgow hospitals, and by 1970s it was widely used in American hospitals.  The technology has undergone extensive development over the past 20 years and it is difficult to imagine gynaecology and obstetrics practise without it. 

Obstetric ultrasonography is used to image a human fetus inside its mother’s womb. It helps confirm a pregnancy, number of fetuses and helps detect fetal abnormalities such as microcephaly (an abnormally small head), absence of kidneys, and spinal problems. Doppler ultrasound is used to measure blood flow and if there is a suspicion the foetus is not growing properly. 

An ultrasound scan is especially helpful in diagnosing growth or tumours of the ovary, uterus and fallopian tubes.
