Frequently Asked Questions?

Are abdominal ultrasound scans painful?

No. Abdominal ultrasounds are a painless, non-invasive and efficient method for diagnosing medical conditions.

How are abdominal ultrasound scans done?

An ultrasound scan will usually require little preparation. To perform an abdominal ultrasound, a person lies flat on their back on an examination table.

The procedure involves the use of an ultrasound probe. This is a wand-like device that sends high-frequency sound waves into the body and picks up the responding signal.

Before they begin, the doctor will apply a gel to the abdominal skin. This helps sound waves pass through the abdomen more efficiently. The gel is water-based and easy to clean off after the procedure.

The doctor will then place the probe on the abdomen. They will move the device around the area to create a better image of the abdomen. The transducer may press lightly on the abdomen, but the procedure should not feel uncomfortable.

This process will continue until the ultrasound image contains a sufficient amount of detail for its intended purpose. It is possible to display the ultrasound image immediately and to take photographs for reference.

After completing the ultrasound, the doctor will clean any remaining gel from the abdominal skin.

The procedure should take 20-25 minutes to complete.

Can I use both NHS and private healthcare services?

Yes, many people use a combination of NHS and private healthcare services. For example, you might use the NHS for general care and emergencies while opting for private healthcare for quicker access to specialist consultations and elective procedures.
