Sonography
USG WHOLE + TVS pairs two studies in one visit: a whole-abdomen ultrasound checking organs like your liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and kidneys, and a transvaginal scan giving a closer, clearer view of your uterus and ovaries than an abdominal probe alone provides. These cover different ground. The whole-abdomen portion is about your abdominal organs generally, while the transvaginal portion is specifically about pelvic structures that are easier to assess with an internal probe, such as early pregnancy findings or a suspected ovarian cyst. Your doctor orders this combination when both checks are genuinely needed at the same visit, rather than as an automatic, routine pairing.
This visit combines two checks: a whole-abdomen scan of organs like your liver and kidneys, and a transvaginal scan giving a closer view of your uterus and ovaries. Each is read separately for its own reason, so ask your doctor what specifically prompted combining the two.
USG WHOLE + TVS combines two separate studies into a single visit: a whole-abdomen ultrasound and a transvaginal scan.
The whole-abdomen portion examines organs including your liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and kidneys. The transvaginal portion uses an internal probe placed closer to the uterus and ovaries, giving a clearer view of pelvic structures, including early pregnancy findings, than an abdominal scan alone typically provides.
This pairing makes sense when a general abdominal check and a detailed pelvic view are both needed at the same visit, such as investigating abdominal symptoms alongside a gynaecological concern, or confirming an early pregnancy while also checking other abdominal organs. It isn't ordered as a routine combination for every patient.
Two different scanning approaches are used in the same visit, one through the abdomen and one internally, so this visit typically takes longer than either scan alone. Your doctor or the centre can talk you through what each part involves beforehand if you have questions about the transvaginal portion specifically.
It's two separate studies, a whole-abdomen ultrasound and a transvaginal scan, performed together in a single visit.
It examines organs including your liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and kidneys, unrelated to the pelvic structures checked by the transvaginal part.
It uses an internal probe for a closer, clearer view of your uterus and ovaries, including early pregnancy findings, than an abdominal scan alone gives.
Usually because a general abdominal check and a detailed pelvic view are both genuinely needed at the same visit, rather than as a routine, automatic pairing.

It can involve some pressure but isn't usually described as painful. Ask your doctor or the centre if you have specific concerns about this part.
Yes, since two different scanning approaches are used, this visit typically takes longer than either study alone.
There's no single preparation that applies to every patient across both parts of this visit. Ask your doctor or the centre what they'd like you to do beforehand.
