| sonogram |
a visualization of internal organs achieved by bouncing sound waves into the area to be examined (for example, a pregnant woman's abdomen). A level 1 ultrasound is usually done to date a pregnancy. A level 2 ultrasound is used for more specific diagnostic purposes. Sonograms can detect a number of problems, but like all medical tests, they are not 100% perfect.
