According to the measuring parameter using gray scale and color Doppler the finding were catego-rized into positive and negative. Positive findings were confirmed in surgery which were present in 18 infants (40%). Negative finding were present in 27 infants (60%) which were confirmed by means of follow-up.</p> <p><strong>Result:  </strong>The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specifi-city of gray scale ultrasound in diagnosing infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis is 100%.<strong></strong></p> <p><strong>Conclusion:  </strong>Ultrasound is the method of choice in the diagnosis of infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. The use of the color Doppler aids in diagnosis of IHPS than using the gray scale alone.</p> <p><strong>Key words:</strong>  Grayscale ultrasound, colour Doppler ultrasound, infantile hypertrophic pyloric stenosis, dia-gnostic accuracy.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Annals of King Edward Medical University}, author={Dogar, Iqbal Hussain and Mehdi, Anjum and Gautam, Mahesh and Abbas, Farnaz and .., Fareeda and Rageh, Ameen}, year={2015}, month={Nov.}, pages={155} }
