What this scan is

A complete abdominal ultrasound uses sound waves to image the organs of the abdomen — the liver, gallbladder, kidneys, pancreas, and spleen. It uses no radiation and is a common first test for abdominal pain, which makes its out-of-pocket price a frequent search.

What affects the price

  • Facility vs. physician fees. A scan can be billed as a facility charge, a radiologist's reading fee, or both. Published cash prices usually cover the facility component.
  • With or without contrast. Adding contrast dye is a different billing code and costs more; the prices here are for the scan without contrast.
  • Setting. The same scan can be priced differently for outpatient vs. inpatient care. We show the outpatient cash price where a hospital publishes one.
  • The hospital itself. Each hospital sets its own chargemaster, so cash prices for the identical code can vary several-fold across town.
