Ultrasound consultations and examinations for newborns and children

We offer highly qualified ultrasound examinations for babies and children at our paediatric clinic at Zollikerberg Hospital. Our paediatricians have special specialist training and are equipped with a certificate of competence to carry out these examinations. We also offer expert care from an experienced paediatric cardiologist for all paediatric cardiological issues in our special consultation hours.

With the help of modern sonography technology, we can make non-invasive and radiation-free diagnoses that enable a precise assessment of organs, tissues and the skeletal system. In addition to examining internal organs such as the kidneys, liver, the brain in newborns or the intestines, we also use ultrasound to diagnose bone fractures or soft tissue examinations. This method offers a gentle alternative to X-ray examinations and is therefore particularly suitable for newborns and children.
