Abstract
This study is to determine whether ultrasound is an important adjuvant to clinical and laboratory profile: to predict prognosis and assessing severity of disease with platelet correlation. ultrasonic variations seen in various age groups were studied. we conducted a prospective study in seriologically positive 115 cases of dengue fever between June and December 2015 were refered for USG abdomen and USG thorax.
KEYWORDS: Dengue fever, ultrasound, ascities, gall bladder odema, pleural effusion.
