A member asked:
If you have pancreatitis and doctors do an ultra sound will they only see the problem if experiencing pain at that exact moment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is good for Cysts: Ultrasound alone is not a great test for the abdomen. A ct scan is much better to evaluate the abdominal problems. But ultrasound is a good test to look for a cyst in any organ like pancreas or liver/ kidneys and elsewhere in the body.
