Numbers they call out in ultrasound?

Hi all,

 

I've just had an abdominal and transvaginal ultrasound. I didn't ask if they saw anything (which I do regret but didn't know if it was normal to ask!).

They kept calling out lots of numbers and measurements. I'm just wondering if anyone knows what these mean? I can't seem to find any information online.

Thanks for your help!

  • Hello NewZealand54322,

    The best thing to do is  speak to your doctor about the concerns you have at your next appointment. You should never be afraid to ask anything and there are no silly questions. When you are worried that you may have cancer, it can be tempting to look for answers online, but this can end up increasing anxiety rather than making you feel better. And the only person that can diagnose you is your doctor.  

    I hope this is helpful,
