About the USG Parotid Gland

Ultrasound of the Parotid Gland is a painless sound wave test to assess the largest salivary gland on either side of the face in front of the ears. During this test, detailed real-time pictures of the gland and surrounding soft tissues are produced, which aid in the diagnosis of inflammatory conditions, salivary stones, cysts, enlarged lymph nodes, and both cancerous and noncancerous masses. With an advanced sonography system at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, you can receive accurate imaging for the diagnosis and tracking of parotid gland disorders.

What is a USG Parotid Gland Scan?

A USG Parotid Gland Scan creates real-time images of one or both parotid glands and nearby soft tissues without exposing the patient to radiation. The examination helps evaluate:

  • Parotid gland enlargement
  • Salivary gland stones (sialolithiasis)
  • Acute and chronic inflammation (parotitis)
  • Cysts
  • Benign and malignant tumors
  • Abscesses
  • Enlarged lymph nodes adjacent to the parotid gland

Ultrasound can also help determine whether a swelling is arising from the parotid gland or nearby soft tissues.

Why is a USG Parotid Gland Performed?

Your doctor may recommend this examination for:

  • Evaluation of parotid gland swelling
  • Investigation of pain around the jaw or ear
  • Detection of salivary gland stones
  • Assessment of cysts or abscesses
  • Evaluation of suspected benign or malignant parotid tumors
  • Follow-up of previously diagnosed parotid gland disorders
  • Guidance for ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) or biopsy when clinically indicated
