USG - TRUS (Transrectal Ultrasound)
USG - TRUS (Transrectal Ultrasound) is a specialized ultrasound scan used to examine the prostate gland, rectum, and surrounding pelvic structures with detailed imaging.
USG - TRUS (Transrectal Ultrasound) is an advanced imaging procedure performed using a specialized ultrasound probe inserted gently into the rectum to obtain clear images of the prostate gland and nearby tissues. This test is commonly used to evaluate prostate enlargement, prostate infections, prostate nodules, infertility concerns, and suspected prostate cancer.
The scan helps doctors assess the size, shape, and structure of the prostate and can also assist in guiding prostate biopsy procedures when required. It is useful in detecting abnormalities that may not be clearly visible on external ultrasound examinations.
