Services
CN Ultrasound has a wide variety of services available to cater to almost all your ultrasound needs.
Abdominal ultrasounds
This is a scan of the solid abdominal organs included the liver, gallbladder, biliary ducts, kidneys, spleen, pancreas, abdominal vasculature, bladder and prostate / uterus ovaries. The stomach, small and large intestine cannot be viewed during an ultrasound study, but special attention is paid to the walls of these structures with a high frequency probe. All patients who require abdominal ultrasounds will be required to fast for 6-8 hours prior to the examination.
Gynaecological or Pelvis ultrasound
During this study we evaluate the bladder, uterus, ovaries, pelvic spaces and kidneys. Gynaecological or pelvis ultrasound studies are not obstetric or pregnancy scans. During this examination the patients are required to have a full bladder. The Sonographer uses the bladder as a window to be able to perform a detailed scan of the uterus and ovaries.
Vascular ultrasound
Blood vessels are evaluated during vascular ultrasound and they include: Carotid artery Doppler – study of the vessels in the neck. Peripheral venous Doppler studies to evaluate the veins in the arms and legs normally to exclude a possible deep vein thrombosis. Peripheral arterial Doppler studies to evaluate the blood flow of the arteries in the arms and legs. Renal artery Doppler study to evaluate the renal arteries for patients with hypertension and impaired renal function.
Musculoskeletal ultrasound
Joint, muscles, tendons or ligaments are evaluated with the use of high frequency ultrasound.
Thyroid, breast and soft tissue ultrasound
Thyroid, breast and soft tissue ultrasound examinations are also performed with the use of high frequency ultrasound. Elastography and 3D ultrasound are some of the soft ware tools used to aid in the diagnosis of thyroid and breast nodules.
Pregnancy ultrasound
CN Ultrasound does not perform any pregnancy ultrasound examinations. We recommend our health partners Heidi and Isabel @ the 4D Scan, conveniently located inside Intercare Woodhill. 4D Scan is a group of highly trained diagnostic Sonographers who are Foetal medicine accredited and perform the following ultrasounds: pregnancy confirmation, 11-14 weeks nuchal screening, anatomy scans, advances pregnancy scans, and 4D ultrasound.
