What our clinic will offer you
Our clinic is a one stop service based in our modern clean hospital environment which offers patients the reassurance of a detailed ultrasound examination of the abdomen and/or pelvis undertaken by an experienced consultant radiologist.
Ultrasound is used as a first line investigation for a large variety of abdominal symptoms because of its versatility and non-invasive nature. Ultrasound is used to help diagnose conditions such as:
- Abdominal pain or distension from ulcer or bowel diseases including diverticulitis or bowel tumour masses
- Abnormal liver function
- Enlarged abdominal organs or unusual lumps
- Stones in the gall bladder or kidney
- Aortic Aneurism
- Acute appendicitis, pelvic abscesses or ovarian cysts
Our One Stop Abdominal Pain Clinic provides:
- An initial consultation with a specialist consultant radiologist where a full medical history will be taken along with details of the type, frequency and location of any pain.
- A thorough, focused ultrasound examination based on the medical history and presenting symptoms and a full ultrasound report
- An immediate follow-on appointment or same day referral and an appointment the following day with the appropriate consultant surgeon if clinically required.
How much will it cost?
The cost for consultation/s and ultrasound examination will be £345.00
