A pelvic ultrasound is an imaging test used to assess the uterus, uterine lining, ovaries, and surrounding pelvic structures. It can help investigate symptoms such as pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, and other gynaecological concerns, and can provide valuable information to guide further assessment and treatment.
Our team will explain the scan clearly and make sure you understand what to expect throughout the examination.
We’ll discuss your symptoms, medical history, and the reason for your scan to determine what needs to be assessed.
