Ultrasound Clinic

Ultrasound scanning can assist doctors in the majority of medical investigations. It is used in a variety of diagnostic procedures, from assessing arterial thickening (carotid intima media thickness study), blockages in arteries and veins in the lower limbs, echocardiography on the heart, to the investigation of the reproduction system to identify polycystic ovaries, or to follow ovulation induction. The renal tract, liver and even musculoskeletal and sports injuries can all utilise ultrasound scanning technology.
