An ultrasound scan, is a safe and painless medical imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the inside of the body. It is widely known for being used to image a baby in pregnancy but can also be used to visualise the solid organs and tissues in the body including, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, spleen, bladder, uterus, ovaries, thyroid, testes and soft tissue lumps and bumps.
The sonographer will check your personal details (name and date of birth) to ensure they are correct on your images. A history of any symptoms (if any) will be taken and noted. Ultrasound gel will be applied to your skin and the ultrasound transducer (probe) will be gently pressed over your skin. The sonographer will be quiet as they store your images as they have to concentrate. After your scan is finished the sonographer will discuss any results with you and give you an opportunity to ask any questions. You will receive a hard copy of your report (if included in your session) as well as a digital copy of your report and any images.
During your session, the sonographer may seem quiet as they focus on gathering the necessary images. This is to ensure they provide the most accurate scan possible. Once the scan is complete, they will discuss their findings with you (if applicable) and give you the opportunity to ask any questions. If anything concerning is detected, you will be referred to the appropriate healthcare professional for further evaluation.
We would recommend that all clients pass share their copy of their ultrasound report with their GP.
Our obstetric scans are non-diagnostic and are primarily intended for bonding with your baby. However, if the sonographer notices anything they are concerned about during the scan, they will direct you to the appropriate healthcare professional for further evaluation.
The preparation for each scan may vary, and the specific instructions should be included in your booking email. However, if you're unsure or have any questions, it's best to check the website under the scan you have booked or feel free to call us, and we’ll be happy to provide guidance.
A transvaginal ultrasound scan is a type of scan specifically used to examine a woman's reproductive organs, including the uterus, ovaries, endometrium (lining of the womb), and fallopian tubes. It involves using a small ultrasound probe, which is inserted into the vagina to provide clearer and more detailed images of these areas than an abdominal ultrasound may offer.
It's completely understandable to feel some hesitation or concern about undergoing a transvaginal ultrasound, and there will be no pressure to proceed if you're not comfortable. Your comfort and well-being are our priority, and we are happy to answer any questions you may have.
In certain cases, we would not undertake a transvaginal ultrasound, including for individuals under the age of 18 or if you have never been sexually active.
