Yes, a diagnostic ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive imaging technique that utilizes sound waves to create detailed images of the body. Unlike imaging methods that use radiation, ultrasounds are considered risk-free and have been used in medical diagnostics for decades. They’re trusted tools for assessing various health conditions across different areas of care.

At Nola Diagnostic Ultrasound, your safety and comfort are our top priorities. Our sonographer holds registries with the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS) and is highly qualified in OB/GYN, abdominal, vascular, and pediatric imaging.
