Private Ultrasound Scan Testimonials

"Dr S I Mahmood is passionate, considerate and, most importantly, knowledgeable. I was completely at ease and was allotted a generous amount of time with him to really make sure I understood what was being said. Booked online less than 12 hrs before coming in, process easy peasy. I have previously used a woman in Harley Street for ultrasounds - NO LONGER. My scan today was the cheapest I could find in Berkshire, yet the consultant himself and the services he provides are unmatched in my experience. Literally zero wait time.
Thank you, doctor! – Alyss Prichard

Ankle Ultrasound Scan FAQs

What is an ankle ultrasound scan?

An ankle ultrasound scan is a safe and non-invasive imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of the soft tissues, ligaments, tendons, and joints in your ankle. It’s a primary and essential diagnostic tool for assessing a wide range of conditions, including injuries and chronic issues.

What Happens During the Scan?

Initial Consultation: The radiologist will discuss your symptoms and medical history.
Positioning: You will be comfortably positioned on an examination table, with your foot and ankle exposed.
Ultrasound Gel Application: A small amount of gel will be applied to your ankle to improve the transmission of sound waves.
Scanning Process: The radiologist will use a handheld transducer to capture images of the ankle. This process is entirely painless.
Review: The radiologist will review the images and provide a preliminary discussion of findings if appropriate.
