Safe, Real-Time Imaging for a Wide Range of Conditions
Ultrasound scanning, also known as sonography, is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of the body’s internal structures. Widely used across both public and private healthcare facilities in Singapore, ultrasound is especially valuable for evaluating soft tissues, organs, and blood flow, without exposing patients to radiation.Ultrasound is commonly performed in pregnancy care, abdominal imaging, and vascular assessment, as well as in musculoskeletal and pelvic health evaluations.

In Singapore, ultrasound scans are commonly used for:

Ultrasound imaging uses a handheld device called a transducer , which emits sound waves that bounce off internal tissues and return as echoes. These echoes are converted into live images by a computer, allowing healthcare providers to observe the function and structure of organs in real time.
The procedure is typically painless, safe, and quick, usually taking between 15 to 45 minutes,depending on the area being scanned.


Ultrasound is radiation-free and considered safe for patients of all ages, including pregnant women and children. It’s often the first-line imaging method due to its convenience, safety, and affordability.
In Singapore, ultrasound scans are usually performed by trained sonographers or radiologists, often based on referrals from general practitioners or specialists.
The cost of an Ultrasound Scan in Singapore generally ranges from $100 to over $700+, depending on the type of scan and the area of the body being examined. Subsidised rates may be offered at public hospitals for eligible patients.
