When a private ultrasound is a sensible next step

New health symptoms you want investigated, follow-up of known findings, pregnancy reassurance (including viability checks and early pregnancy scans), or screening when you want a baseline health check. If you have severe symptoms — chest pain, heavy bleeding, or sudden weakness — seek urgent medical care first.

Choose a private scan based on your health question

Sonoworld provides a wide range of private ultrasounds for men, women and preganncy. Begin by selecting a category that matches your concern. Each page provides detailed information on what the scan involves, how to prepare, and what you will receive. If you have already had other tests, like blood tests, and are still searching for answers, a targeted ultrasound scan is a logical and effective next step.

Ultrasound is a low-risk diagnostic test and does not use radiation. Side effects are uncommon. If your symptoms are severe or worsening, do not wait for imaging — seek urgent care. If an urgent concern is identified during your scan, we discuss it with you immediately and advise the safest next step.

Health screening and early detection

Screenings can be helpful if you want a baseline check, particularly if you have a family history or simply want peace of mind. It does not replace medical care, but it can support early detection and help you prioritise next steps with your GP or specialist.
