This scan is recommended for those who have concerns about any soft tissue lumps/bumps or any unexplained swellings.
The scan can help investigate cysts, skin changes, hernias, lipomas or foreign bodies. Whilst completing the scan we carry out an overall well being check on the area requested.
We carefully check the area and report back our findings.
As we allow a full 40 minutes appointment this provides you with the opportunity to ask any questions you may have and allows us to support you and provide you with the most accurate advice during the scan. A qualified Sonographer will complete your scan. Our Sonographers are fully qualified and registered medical professionals with lots of ultrasound experience. We follow the British Medical Ultrasound Society protocols and guidance. If, at any stage, we notice anything unusual during your scan we will explain our findings based on the visual observation at that time. We will advise you on what to do next and refer you to your GP or local hospital unit, we have the contact information and details to provide to you in the clinic.
If we recommend a follow up we can email a copy of your report to your healthcare provider with your permission.
