Our General Ultrasound services at TheUltraSoundCentre cover a wide spectrum of medical imaging, including:
Ideal for examining the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and more. Helps identify issues like gallstones, liver diseases, and abdominal tumors.
An essential tool in obstetrics and gynecology for monitoring pregnancy and fetal development. Also used to assess reproductive organs and detect conditions like ovarian cysts and uterine abnormalities.
Assesses blood flow and vascular health.
Aids in diagnosing conditions such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and peripheral artery disease (PAD).
Examines the thyroid gland for nodules, cysts, or enlargement.
Aids in the diagnosis of thyroid disorders, including hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.
Often used alongside mammography for comprehensive breast imaging.
Beneficial for evaluating breast lumps, pain, or abnormalities.
Supports the evaluation of soft tissues, muscles, and joints.
Valuable for diagnosing injuries, inflammation, and musculoskeletal conditions.
This is often done in the first trimester to confirm that the pregnancy is viable, meaning that the fetus has a heartbeat and is developing as expected.
During the scan, the sonographer will also look for the presence or absence of the fetal nasal bone.
The absence of the nasal bone can be an additional marker for Down syndrome.
NST is a test that measures the baby's heart rate in response to its movements.
It's used to determine whether the fetus is receiving enough oxygen and nutrients.
The position and presentation of the baby in the uterus are assessed to determine if the baby is in the correct position for delivery.
Fetal echocardiography utilizes high-frequency ultrasound to create detailed images of the fetal heart.
This provides a close-up view of the heart's chambers, valves, blood vessels, and overall structure.
During an ultrasound scan typically performed between 11 and 14 weeks of pregnancy, the thickness of the clear space at the back of the fetus's neck (nuchal translucency) is measured.
Monitoring cervical length helps assess the risk of preterm birth.
A short cervix may indicate a higher likelihood of preterm labor, and medical interventions or closer monitoring may be considered..
