How To Scan The Spleen On Ultrasound | Probe Positioning | Transducer Placement | Abdominal USG Roll the patient 45 degrees onto the right side. Supine position can also be used. Place the probe in the 9th intercostal space at the anterior axillary line. Move the probe anteriorly and posteriorly to thoroughly scan the spleen in longitudinal plane. Rotate the probe 90 degrees anticlockwise to scan the spleen in transverse view. Move the probe anteriorly and posteriorly to thoroughly scan the sple

The spleen acts as a inspection center for red blood cells. Blood flows through narrow channels inside the spleen, forcing red cells to squeeze through tight spaces. Healthy cells pass through easily because their membranes are flexible. Older red cells have stiffer membranes and become trapped. Once trapped, they are examined by phagocytes, which are immune cells specialized in removing damaged material. The phagocytes engulf the worn out red cells and break them down inside enzyme filled compa
