It simply means that the ultrasound transducer will be put on your abdomen instead of internally through your vagina. Each of the approaches has advantages and disadvantages, and Which approach is recommended depends on what kind of results the doctor is looking for. Sounds like the doctor specified what he or she wanted. Good luck.
