Ultrasound Services Offered
Full Abdominal Ultrasound
Comprehensive assessment of all abdominal organs, including gastrointestinal tract, liver, spleen, pancreas, urinary tract, adrenal glands, reproductive organs, and regional lymph nodes.
Musculoskeletal Ultrasound
Evaluation of soft tissue structures associated with the musculoskeletal system, including tendons, ligaments, and muscle groups.
Head, Neck, and Body Wall
Targeted ultrasound of cervical structures, salivary glands, lymph nodes, thyroid, and superficial body wall masses or swellings.
Limb Evaluation
Focused ultrasound of distal limbs for assessment of swellings, tendon injuries, or suspected foreign material.
Ultrasound-Guided Bone Sampling
Includes guided aspiration or biopsy of bony lesions when indicated, in consultation with radiographic or advanced imaging findings.
Ultrasound-Guided Sampling
We offer a range of ultrasound-guided sampling procedures, performed with patient safety and diagnostic quality as top priorities:
Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA)
Ultrasound-guided FNA is available for intrathoracic, intra-abdominal, and peripheral tissues.
All FNAs are performed with care to minimise complications and maximise diagnostic yield.
Pre-procedure haematology with a manual platelet count are required to assess bleeding risk.
Tru-Cut Biopsy
Core needle (Tru-Cut) biopsies are available where appropriate.
These procedures must be discussed in advance to assess risk and patient suitability.
We recommend at least 8 hours of post-procedural monitoring, including a repeat ultrasound prior to discharge.
Pre-procedure tests required:
Full haematology with manual platelet count
Coagulation profile (PT/aPTT)
Sedation Guidelines
Sedation is strongly recommended for all non-cardiac ultrasound procedures.
This approach improves patient comfort and allows for optimal image quality and sampling accuracy.
Sedation protocols can be tailored to each case and discussed prior to scanning.
