What is a TRUS (Transrectal ultrasonography ) SONOFISTULOGRAM Test in Kolkata ?
What is TRUS (Transrectal ultrasonography ) SONOFISTULOGRAM?
TRUS sonofistulogram uses a small ultrasound probe placed in the rectum to make images of the rectum, prostate, and nearby tissues. It maps the path of a fistula by injecting fluid or saline and watching the tract on ultrasound. This shows the fistula length, branches, and relation to sphincter muscles. Physical examination provides clues; a test result removes ambiguity and allows targeted, evidence-based management to begin promptly.
What does TRUS (Transrectal ultrasonography ) SONOFISTULOGRAM measure?
Accurate mapping reduces recurrence and helps surgeons plan safer procedures. Doctors use it to diagnose perianal fistulas and abscesses, to guide drainage or biopsies, and to follow healing after treatment. The test is usually quick and performed as an outpatient procedure. Laboratory analysis produces a numerical result compared against a reference range derived from a healthy population of equivalent age and gender. Clinical context determines whether a borderline result is significant.
What symptoms suggest TRUS (Transrectal ultrasonography ) SONOFISTULOGRAM may be needed?
A doctor may order TRUS (Transrectal ultrasonography ) SONOFISTULOGRAM when a patient reports hives or skin rash, nasal congestion, sneezing, itchy or watery eyes, asthma symptoms triggered by specific exposures, and digestive symptoms after eating specific foods. In Kolkata, residents of New Town and EM Bypass commonly present for this test after noticing these symptoms during a routine or preventive consultation.
How is TRUS (Transrectal ultrasonography ) SONOFISTULOGRAM performed?
A certified phlebotomist cleans the inner elbow, locates a vein, inserts a fine sterile needle, and draws the required blood (typically 5 to 10 mL). The procedure takes 3 to 5 minutes. You feel a brief pinch at insertion and mild pressure during collection. You can eat, drink, drive, and resume all activities immediately afterwards.
How accurate is TRUS (Transrectal ultrasonography ) SONOFISTULOGRAM?
NABL-accredited laboratory results are analytically reliable. GetVisit's logistics network maintains cold-chain transport from collection to the processing lab, preserving sample integrity. Quality control is independently audited by NABL at regular intervals.
Are there any risks to TRUS (Transrectal ultrasonography ) SONOFISTULOGRAM?
There are no significant medical risks beyond those of a standard blood draw. Vasovagal fainting (rare) is more likely if you are fasting, anxious, or dehydrated. Drink 2 to 3 glasses of water before the appointment, remain seated during the draw, and stay seated for 2 to 3 minutes afterwards. Inform the phlebotomist if you have fainted during previous draws.
TRUS (Transrectal ultrasonography ) SONOFISTULOGRAM Test Preparation in Kolkata
Fasting and dietary instructions:
No special fasting needed. Avoid heavy fatty meals and alcohol the evening before as a general precaution.
Medication guidance:
Continue all regularly prescribed medication unless your doctor has specifically instructed otherwise. Inform lab staff about all prescription drugs, supplements, herbal preparations, and protein powders you are taking.
What to bring:
Bring your doctor's prescription or test requisition, a valid photo ID, and your corporate health insurance card if using cashless OPD. Wear short sleeves or clothing with sleeves that roll up easily.

Who should get TRUS (Transrectal ultrasonography ) SONOFISTULOGRAM done in Kolkata?
