Abdomen and Urinary Tract Ultrasound

Abdomen and Urinary Tract Ultrasound Scan - £295.00

London Private Ultrasound (LPU) offers a combined abdominal with kidneys and bladder ultrasound scan to female patients over 18 years old. 

Generalised pain and discomfort in the abdomen, lower back pain, kidney region, blood in the urine, and urine infection are the most common reasons for having an evaluation of your abdominal organs such as the liver, gallbladder, kidney, spleen, pancreas, abdominal aorta, and the biliary system, as well as ureter and bladder. If you have a family history of any abdominal, kidney, or bladder issues, you may also wish to have regular check-ups to ensure normal appearances and general structural health of your organs.

Common Reasons for an Abdomen and Urinary Tract Ultrasound:

Abdominal Pain: Persistent or severe pain in the abdomen can be caused by issues such as gallstones, liver disease, or kidney stones. An ultrasound can help pinpoint the exact cause of the pain, allowing for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

  • Abnormal Liver Function Tests: If your liver function tests show abnormal results, an ultrasound can help determine the underlying cause. Conditions like fatty liver disease, hepatitis, or liver tumors can be identified through this imaging technique.
  • Jaundice: Yellowing of the skin and eyes, often related to liver or gallbladder problems, can be investigated with an abdomen ultrasound. It helps in identifying obstructions or diseases affecting the bile ducts.
  • Kidney Stones: To detect the presence and size of stones in the kidneys or bladder, an ultrasound is a non-invasive method that can provide clear images and aid in treatment planning.
  • Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs): Recurrent UTIs or complicated cases can benefit from an ultrasound to evaluate the kidneys and bladder for any structural abnormalities or obstructions.
  • Pancreatitis: Inflammation of the pancreas, which can cause severe abdominal pain and digestive issues, can be accurately diagnosed using an ultrasound scan.
  • Ascites: Accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity, often related to liver disease or heart failure, can be assessed through an abdomen ultrasound to understand the extent and cause of the condition.
  • Bladder Issues: Frequent urination, incontinence, or difficulty urinating can be evaluated through an ultrasound to identify any underlying problems such as bladder stones, tumors, or an enlarged prostate.

At London Private Ultrasound, our expert radiologists use state-of-the-art equipment to ensure precise imaging and accurate diagnosis. The procedure is quick and typically completed within 30 minutes, allowing you to get timely answers and appropriate medical care.

Our Ultrasound Specialists will explain the procedure before your scan. You will be guided to lie on your back on the examination couch. A small amount of water-based gel will be applied to your abdomen and lower abdomen. Our specialist will move the probe on your skin to produce high-quality diagnostic ultrasound images. You will not feel any discomfort during your ultrasound scan. The abdomen, kidney, and urinary tract ultrasound scan is regularly completed within 30 minutes. Our Sonographer will recommend the best course of action, depending on the ultrasound scan findings.
You will receive your results verbally during or after the scan. However, the Sonographer will examine the relevant images after your appointment and prepare a written report after your scan or within 24 hours with any recommended actions. The report will be sent to you so that you can discuss the findings with your doctor, if required.
There are no risks or side effects associated with the Abdominal and Urinary tract ultrasound scan. Ultrasound does not use any radiation, which is why doctors prefer to use them to check on developing babies in pregnant women. Your safety is one of our top priorities; therefore, we strictly adhere to BMUS guidelines for the safe use of Diagnostic Ultrasound Equipment and scanning times, as well as respect the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).
Urgent health conditions can happen at any time of the day or night.
