Ultrasounds are used to examine different areas of the body. The name of a type of ultrasound will tell the radiographer what structures are to be examined. For example, a transvaginal ultrasound uses sound waves to make pictures of the organs inside the pelvis. The interviewer wants to know that you understand possible diagnoses that may occur as a result of this test.
