We can now offer more kinds of ultrasound scan
We can now scan the abdomen, the thyroid, the carotid arteries and the leg veins.
An ultrasound scan is safe, easy on the body and almost painless. Because it shows what is happening inside in real time, it is very useful for finding problems early and for prevention.
- Carotid artery
- Checking for hardening of the arteries and for blood flow
- Thyroid
- Checking size, lumps and swelling
- Abdomen
- Conditions of the liver, pancreas, gallbladder, kidneys and spleen
- Leg veins
- Checking blood flow and for clots
🔸 When we recommend an ultrasound scan
- Bloating or stomach pain, or abnormal liver results at a health check (abdominal scan)
- A lump in the neck, or swelling of the thyroid (thyroid scan)
- Concern about hardening of the arteries or the risk of stroke (carotid scan)
- Swollen or heavy legs, or concern about clots (leg vein scan)
When something bothers you a little but does not seem worth a hospital visit, an ultrasound scan can settle it.
