The visit

Why an ultrasound is calm and safe

At our clinic Vladislavs Kopitkovs performs ultrasound examinations for adults and children from age 6. Please check appointment dates and times on the booking portals or by phone on +371 255 89 505.

  1. No radiation

    Ultrasound uses sound waves, not X-rays, so it can be repeated as often as needed. It is safe for children too.

  2. Painless

    The doctor glides a probe over the skin with warm gel. It feels like a light massage.

  3. 15–20 minutes

    The visit usually takes 15–20 minutes, and the doctor discusses the result with you straight away.

  4. Once a year

    Doctors recommend an ultrasound once a year for everyone, even without complaints: many changes stay silent for a long time but show up on the screen well before symptoms.

What to bring

This helps the doctor assess the situation more accurately and see changes over time. We recommend preparing your medical documents in advance:

  • Results of previous ultrasound, CT and MRI scans
  • Test results
  • Doctors’ reports
  • Discharge summaries from medical institutions
