Hey! there are many ppl who cannot afford a ct scan so in that case usg is the option for making some diagnosis. Apart from this there’s a protocol which need to be followed and you cannot directly do a ct scan or a higher lever of investigation which can be easily detected by clinical examination. Else in your case or patients who are not comfortable eith certain investigations for them alternative investigations can be done.
