USG of Brain(F726) Price in Bangladesh

What is USG of Brain(F726)?

An Ultrasound (USG) of the Brain (F726) is a diagnostic procedure primarily used for imaging the brain in infants, as their skull bones are not fully ossified, allowing sound waves to pass through. It helps detect conditions like brain bleeds, ventriculomegaly, or congenital brain abnormalities.

The procedure involves applying a small amount of gel to the baby's fontanel (soft spot on the head), and a probe is used to emit sound waves that create real-time images of the brain's structure. It is non-invasive, painless, and carries minimal risk.

The test is commonly used in newborns, especially those in neonatal intensive care.

What to expect & how to prepare

An ultrasound scan uses high-frequency sound waves to look at organs, vessels or a pregnancy in real time. A sonologist applies gel to the skin and moves a probe over the area. Nothing is injected.

• Preparation varies by body part: some scans need a full bladder, some need a few hours without food, and many need nothing at all. Ask the centre which applies to your scan when you book.
• Clothing: wear something loose that gives easy access to the area being scanned.
• Bring earlier reports: previous scans help the sonologist compare findings.

Ultrasound uses no ionising radiation, which is why it is the routine choice in pregnancy.

Performed by a sonologist or radiologist; most centres ask for the referring doctor's advice so the right area is scanned.
