An audit was conducted of 1,750 emergency ultrasound scans performed over 7 months at a hospital. The most common scans were abdominal (32%), vascular (22%), and echocardiography (10%). The majority (53%) of abdominal scans found relevant pathology such as gallstones, kidney stones, appendicitis. Vascular scans commonly detected deep vein thromboses (9%) and aortic aneurysms (2%). Echocardiograms often had normal results (44-71%) but also found things like pulmonary embolisms, pericardial effusions and heart wall motion abnormalities. The audit demonstrated emergency ultrasound's value in rapidly diagnosing many acute and urgent conditions.
