An abdominal ultrasound can help your doctor evaluate the cause of estomac pain or bloating.  Abdominal ultrasounds are used to check the major organs in the abdominal cavity. These organs include the gallbladder, kidneys, liver, pancreas, and spleen.

Ultrasounds are safe and painless.Ultrasound images are captured in real time. They’re able to show the structure and movement of internal organs as well as blood flowing through blood vessels.

In fact, if you’re a man between the ages of 65 and 75 and smoke or used to smoke, the CLINICA BRITANNIA recommends you have an abdominal ultrasound to check for an abdominal aortic aneurysm.

AAAs are usually classified by their size and the speed at which they’re growing. These two factors can help predict the health effects of the aneurysm.

The cause of AAAs is currently unknown. However, certain factors have been shown to increase your risk for them.

They include:

  • Smoking
  • High Blood Pressure ( Hypertension )
  • Vascular Inflammation
