The Department of Ultrasound was founded in 1960. Through the efforts of several generations, it has developed into a base which integrates clinical, teaching, scientific research and integration Now, It is the national standardized training institution of ultrasound medicine for resident doctors, quality control center of Zhejiang Province, master and doctor's degree authorization institution and postdoctoral research center of Medical School of Zhejiang University. Ten specialties were set up in the Department to undertake the corresponding clinical and teaching work (① hepatobiliary and pancreatic ultrasound intervention ② abdominal ultrasound ③ urinary ultrasound ④ thyroid and breast ultrasound ⑤ obstetrics and Gynecology ultrasound ⑥ musculoskeletal ultrasound ⑦ pediatrics ultrasound ⑧ vascular ultrasound ⑨ intensive care ultrasound ⑩ gastrointestinal ultrasound). At present, we have 41 diagnostic ultrasound that include Philips, GE, Esaote, Toshiba etc. we also have advanced microwave radio frequency, laser radio frequency therapy and other interventional therapy equipment. The annual outpatient visits are more than 300000.

There are more than 70 medical staffs in the general practice, including one senior professor and five associate senior professors, one post doctorate, three MD&PhD, three MD & PhD candidates and 36 masters.

We provide routine ultrasound examination including: 

Abdominal ultrasound

Superficial organs and soft tissue ultrasound

Cardiovascular ultrasound

Obstetrics and gynecology ultrasound

Additionally, our could perform all kinds of ultrasound guided interventional procedures and treatments, such as:

Hepatic, pancreatic, retroperitoneal, renal, thyroid, breast, prostate, pleural lesions and lung neoplasm biopsy.

Abscess drainage and drugs injection

Sclerotherapy of various abdominal cyst

Pericardium and pleural effusion intubation and drainage

Hepatic tumor intervention diagnosis and treatments including radio frequency, microwave, laser, nano-knife, ultrasonic endoscope, radioactive particle implantation, HIFU knife.

At present, the department undertakes a large number of national and local projects, including the study on “the efficacy and mechanism of bionic drug-loaded liposome targeted treatment for residual cancer after irreversible electroporation of pancreatic cancer”, “Key Technologies of Endoscopic Ultrasound Nanosecond Knife for the Treatment of Pancreatic Cancer Based on Mathematical Technique Modeling” and “Algorithm of Medical Image Registration and Fusion Real-time Shear Wave Elastic Imaging Quantitative Evaluation of the Changes of Liver Elastic Hepatic Vein Blocking in Small Chinese Pig”.
