Lumps and Bumps Ultrasound Scans Uxbridge

Ultrasound can determine whether the lumps are cystic (fluid-filled) or solid.

Many patients have complaints related to the soft tissues, such as infection, injury, and abnormal masses. Ultrasound is a valuable tool in the evaluation of skin and soft tissue infections, enhancing our ability to diagnose an abscess cavity or deeper infection and has been shown to be more reliable than a clinical exam alone.

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

What types of lumps and bumps can be assessed with an ultrasound?
Ultrasound scans can evaluate a wide range of soft tissue abnormalities, including:
- Cysts
- Lipomas (fatty lumps)
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Abscesses
- Solid masses
- Ganglion cysts
- Skin nodules or lesions
The scan provides detailed insights into the size, shape, and composition of these lumps.
Why is an ultrasound scan recommended for lumps and bumps?
Ultrasound scans are recommended for lumps and bumps because they are safe, painless, effective and readily available. They allow radiologists to differentiate between benign (non-cancerous) and potentially concerning abnormalities. Ultrasound can also guide further diagnostic procedures, such as biopsies if needed.
What happens during a lumps and bumps ultrasound scan?
During the scan:
- A consultant radiologist applies a gel to the skin over the lump.
- A handheld device called a transducer is moved over the area, emitting sound waves.
- The sound waves produce real-time images of the lump and surrounding tissues on a monitor.
The scan is quick, typically lasting 15–30 minutes, and is entirely non-invasive.

Do I need to prepare for a lumps and bumps ultrasound scan?
No special preparation is usually required for this type of ultrasound. You may be asked to wear loose clothing or expose the area where the lump is located. Our team will guide you on specific instructions if needed based on the location of the lump.
Can a lumps and bumps ultrasound detect cancer?
While ultrasound scans are highly effective at characterising lumps (e.g., fluid-filled vs solid), they cannot definitively diagnose cancer. However, the scan can identify suspicious features that may warrant further investigation, such as a biopsy or MRI scan.
Are lumps and bumps ultrasound scans safe?
Yes, ultrasound scans are entirely safe. They use high-frequency sound waves, not radiation, making them suitable for patients of all ages, including children and pregnant women.
What if the scan finds something abnormal?
If the scan detects an abnormality, your consultant radiologist will provide a detailed report and recommendations. Depending on the findings, you may be referred for further diagnostic tests, such as a biopsy or additional imaging, or directed to a specialist for further evaluation.
Are all lumps and bumps harmful?
