TRANSRECTAL ULTRASOUND (TRUS) is a quick, safe, and effective imaging test used to examine the prostate. It helps detect prostate abnormalities, including cancer, enlargement, and infections.
How TRUS Works
A small ultrasound probe is gently inserted into the rectum. It emits sound waves that create detailed images of the prostate. The procedure is minimally invasive, takes about 15–30 minutes, and causes little to no discomfort.
Why You May Need TRUS
• Detects prostate cancer or other abnormalities.
• Evaluates prostate size in cases of enlargement.
• Guides prostate biopsies for accurate diagnosis.
What to Expect
You may feel mild pressure, but the procedure is painless. Most patients resume normal activities immediately. If unusual pain or bleeding occurs, consult a doctor.
Take Action
If you have urinary problems, pelvic discomfort, or concerns about your prostate health, seek expert evaluation. Visit Dr. Onyango Oluoch for diagnosis and management or call 0721850826 to book an appointment. Early detection saves lives.
