Risks of an Abdominal Ultrasound

An abdominal ultrasound has no risks. Unlike X-rays or CT scans, ultrasounds use no radiation, which is why doctors prefer to use them with pregnant women to examine fetuses.

Certain factors or conditions may interfere with the results of the test, including:

  • Severe obesity
  • Food inside the stomach
  • Leftover barium (a liquid you swallow in some tests that helps your doctor see your stomach and gastrointestinal tract) still in the intestines from a recent barium procedure
  • Excess intestinal gas
