Private Ultrasound in Surrey

Where We Can Perform an Ultrasound

At Alaya Health, we understand that people seek a private ultrasound in Surrey for many different reasons. Our high-quality ultrasound services are available at short notice and are carried out by experienced consultant radiologists using state-of-the-art technology. We offer a wide range of ultrasound scans, whether as part of an investigation into new symptoms, follow-up for ongoing concerns, or routine check-ups. Ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive way to examine soft tissues and organs, providing real-time imaging that helps identify, diagnose, or monitor an extensive array of conditions.

We offer ultrasounds for:

• Abdomen: Assess liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and digestive organs.
• Bladder: Investigate issues such as infections, retention, or blockages.
• Blood vessels: Examine veins and arteries for blockages or clots.
• Breast: Monitor lumps or investigate pain and changes.
• Carotid arteries: Assess blood flow in the neck arteries to help identify narrowing or risk of stroke.
• DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis): Examine leg veins to detect possible blood clots or circulation problems.
• General areas: Scan any body part for “lumps and bumps” under the skin.
• Groin: Assess hernias, swelling, or unexplained groin pain.
• Kidney and urinary tract: Diagnose persistent urinary symptoms or unexplained pain.
• Liver: Detect fatty liver, cirrhosis, or other liver conditions.
• Lymph nodes: Evaluate swelling or abnormal nodes.
• Men's health: Assess testicular, prostate, and scrotal areas.
• Musculoskeletal: Examine muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints, ideal for sports injuries or persistent pain.
• Ovaries: Assess for cysts or other changes.
• Pelvis: Evaluate reproductive organs, uterus, and ovaries.
• Prostate: Offer screening and investigation for male health.
• Soft tissue: Evaluate masses, cysts, lipomas, or other abnormalities within soft tissues.
• Testicular: Investigate pain, swelling, or lumps.
• Thyroid and neck: Identify lumps, nodules, or enlarged glands.
• Women's health: Includes transvaginal and pelvic scans for gynaecological concerns.

We also offer ultrasound-guided procedures, including:

• Aspiration / fluid drainage: Removal of fluid from joints, cysts, or soft tissue collections to relieve symptoms or assist diagnosis.
• Biopsies: Image-guided tissue sampling to help diagnose abnormalities or investigate suspicious masses.
• Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA): A minimally invasive procedure used to collect cells from lumps, cysts, or nodules for laboratory analysis.
• Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections: Regenerative treatment using the patient's own platelets to support healing of injured tendons, ligaments, or joints.
• Steroid injections: Targeted injections to reduce inflammation and relieve pain in joints, tendons, or soft tissues.

If your clinician suggests an ultrasound for another reason, our team at Alaya Health can advise and arrange the relevant test for you.
