    "description": "A focused ultrasound of part of the abdomen - a single organ, one quadrant, or a follow-up look at a known finding - with images saved. The contrast with the complete abdominal ultrasound is how much is examined: the complete study works through the full set of upper abdominal organs, while this one deliberately targets the area in question. The gallbladder is far and away the most common single target.",
