Sonography redirects here. For the tactile alphabet called "sonography", see Night writing.
Medical ultrasonography (sonography) is an ultrasound-based diagnostic imaging technique used to visualize muscles and internal organs, their size, structure and any pathological lesions, making them useful for scanning the organs. Obstetric sonography is commonly used during pregnancy.

The choice of frequency is a trade-off between the image spatial resolution and the penetration depth into the patient. Typical diagnostic sonography scanners operate in the frequency range of 2 to 13 megahertz.

Prenatal findings of concomitant duodenal and esophageal atresia without tracheoesophageal fistula (Gross type A)
Yasuyuki Mitani, Toshimichi Hasegawa, Akio Kubota, Hisayoshi Kawahara, Akihiro Yoneda, Keisuke Nose, Motonari Nomura Wed, 01 Jul 2009 13:34:00 -0000
Prenatal diagnosis of concomitant duodenal atresia (DA) and esophageal atresia (EA) without tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) (Gross type A) is very rare. We describe prenatal findings of one such case. Sonographic examination of a 26-week fetus showed a double cystic structure and an intrathoracic cyst. MRI and ultrasound at 26 weeks and 2 days' gestation showed shrinkage of the stomach and duodenum, massive ascites, and the presence of dilated pouch-like structure in the thoracic inlet level, consistent with an upper pouch sign. Polyhydramnios was detected at 30 weeks' gestation. Prenatal diagnosis was concomitant DA and an intrathoracic anomaly such as congenital hiatal hernia, diaphragmatic hernia, esophageal duplication or EA. A boy was delivered at 38 weeks' gestation. Physical examination showed a markedly distended abdomen and imperforate anus. Emergency surgery revealed existing DA and EA without TEF (Gross type A). © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Pre-, intra-, and postoperative sonography of the abdominal wall in patients with incisional hernias repaired via a three-layered operative suture method

We illustrate the various sonographic (US) appearances of the abdominal wall following this type of repair, including partial and complete recurrences. Correlation is made with CT imaging. The three-layered anatomical reconstruction of an incisional hernia is described. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound, 2009
Prenatal diagnosis of schizencephaly with 2D-3D sonography and MRI
Ali Gedikbasi, Gokhan Yildirim, Sezin Saygi, Oguz Arslan, Ahmet Gul, Yavuz Ceylan Wed, 17 Jun 2009 15:01:00 -0000
We report a case of schizencephaly diagnosed prenatally at 23 weeks of gestational age with two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) sonography and fetal brain MRI, confirmed by autopsy. The diagnostic method of choice is 2D transabdominal and transvaginal sonography, whereas additional 3D sonography and MRI may provide a better understanding of the pathology and related findings. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
