Abstract

Background. We are presenting our first experiences with a new method of ultrasound checkup of abdominal organs.

Conclusions. 3D US can serve as a useful supplement to the classical 2D examination since it can provide more information necessary for the diagnostic process. We believe that technological development will eliminate the majority of deficiencies of this method and thus increase its accuracy and applicability.
