A quick look at the bladder ultrasound protocol.

The bladder is systematically swept in sagittal and transverse planes to evaluate its overall appearance and check for internal debris, possible stones, wall irregularities or other abnormalities.

The protocol also includes evaluating the ureteral jets, measuring the bladder wall and calculating bladder volume. When indicated, pre- and post-void measurements are obtained to evaluate for residual urine.

It’s not only about measuring the bladder, it’s about carefully evaluating everything within and around it.

We’ve ALL been personally victimized by the deep-breath instructions 😂💨

How do you differentiate the ECA from the ICA? 👀

Start at the carotid bifurcation in transverse and identify both vessels. Then look for these clues:

• The ECA has branches in the neck
• The ICA normally has no branches in the neck
• The ECA typically has a more pulsatile, high-resistance waveform
• The ICA has a low-resistance waveform with more continuous forward flow during diastole
• A temporal tap can produce small rhythmic deflections in the ECA spectral waveform

Remember: vessel position can vary, so don’t rely only on whether it appears anterior or posterior. Use the anatomy, branches, color flow and spectral waveform together. The temporal tap can be helpful, but it shouldn’t be used as the only identifying feature. Research on the temporal-tap maneuver⁠

Stay tuned for Part 3!

In this video, I’m scanning myself while demonstrating part of a basic carotid ultrasound protocol. I focused mainly on B-mode imaging, with limited color Doppler to visualize the ECA and its branches.

Basic protocol:
Carotid Ultrasound Protocol

Transverse:

• CCA: proximal, mid and distal
• Carotid bulb and bifurcation
• B-mode and color Doppler images

Longitudinal/Sagittal:

• CCA: proximal, mid and distal
• Carotid bulb
• Proximal ECA
• ICA: proximal, mid and distal
• B-mode, color Doppler and pulsed-wave (PW) spectral Doppler at each level
This video does not demonstrate every image or component of a complete carotid duplex examination. Protocols may vary by facility.

Would you like a video demonstrating pulsed-wave spectral Doppler, color flow and velocity measurements? 👀

Have you ever felt a lump in your neck and wondered what it could be? 👀

In this video, I’m showing you the lymph node that I can feel in my own neck and how it looks on ultrasound. I also used color Doppler to evaluate the blood flow in the area.

A soft-tissue ultrasound can help evaluate a palpable lump beneath the skin and provide useful information about its appearance, size, and location. Not every lump is something serious, but any new, persistent, growing, or painful lump should be evaluated by a healthcare provider.

People often think sonographers spend the entire day taking ultrasound pictures, but there’s so much more happening behind the scenes. We can also work alongside physicians and provide real-time ultrasound guidance during different procedures.

Can you guess which procedures I’ve assisted with throughout my career? 👀 I’ll share them in Part 2!

Ever wondered what simple breast cysts look like on ultrasound?

In this educational example, you can see multiple simple cysts as I scan through the breast tissue. Simple cysts are fluid-filled sacs that typically appear completely black (anechoic) with smooth, thin walls on ultrasound.

Ultrasound is a valuable tool that helps evaluate breast tissue and further assess areas of concern. Not every breast lump is a cyst, and not every cyst requires treatment, that’s why proper imaging and interpretation are so important.

La prevención y un diagnóstico temprano pueden marcar la diferencia. 🧡

¿Sabías que un ultrasonido pélvico puede brindar información importante sobre tu salud ginecológica?

Este estudio nos permite evaluar:
✔️ El útero
✔️ Los ovarios
✔️ El endometrio (revestimiento del útero)
✔️ Otras estructuras pélvicas

También puede ayudar a identificar fibromas, quistes en los ovarios y otras condiciones ginecológicas, proporcionando información valiosa para ti y tu médico.

🩺 Todos nuestros estudios diagnósticos son interpretados por un radiólogo certificado.

Pancreas visualization tip!

One simple trick that can make a big difference: ask your patient to push their belly out (belly breathing) instead of sucking it in. This can help shift bowel gas and improve your acoustic window, making the pancreas much easier to visualize.

Small adjustments like this can save time and improve your exam! 👏

💬 Fellow sonographers—what’s your favorite trick for getting a better pancreas image?
