Ultrasound imaging is non-invasive, radiation-free, highly versatile and painless, allowing our team to visualise your organs and vessels in real time. Our skilled Sonographers scan your thyroid, carotid arteries, abdominal aorta, liver and biliary tree, pancreas, kidneys, spleen, bladder and reproductive organs (uterus and ovaries or prostate and testes), looking for structural changes, blockages and early pathology.
Even subtle changes can be detected, such as enlargement, nodules, cysts or compromised blood flow, so interventions can begin before symptoms arise.
During your Preventicum assessment, our expert Sonographers will examine your:
- Thyroid – to look for nodules, enlargement or structural changes
- Carotid arteries – to assess blood flow and identify early signs of narrowing or plaque build-up
- Abdominal aorta – to screen for potentially life-threatening aneurysms
- Liver, gallbladder, biliary tree and pancreas – to detect stones, cysts, tumours or other abnormalities
- Kidneys and spleen – to check for structural changes, cysts or other abnormalities
- Bladder – to assess how well the bladder empties and for any structural abnormalities
- Reproductive organs (female) – uterus and ovaries, to look for ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids and endometrial abnormalities
- Reproductive organs (male) – to assess prostate volume and check the testes for any lesions
- Female clients over 40 will also have a Bindex scan which assesses the probability of osteoporosis
