Women’s Ultrasound Check
Women's Health Check: Leveraging Ultrasound Scans
At Ultrasound Care, we understand the challenges women face in prioritising their health, which is why we offer comprehensive women's health check ups through advanced ultrasound scans. Providing a convenient and effective solution for proactive healthcare management.
Women often find themselves juggling multiple roles and responsibilities, from career pursuits to family obligations. Amidst this whirlwind of activity, it's easy to overlook your own health needs. However, prioritising your regular women’s health check ups is essential for maintaining overall well-being and preventing potential health issues from escalating.
The Significance of Ultrasounds
Ultrasound scans have revolutionised the landscape of medical diagnostics, offering invaluable insights into the body's internal structures without the need for invasive procedures.
By utilising high-frequency sound waves, ultrasound technology generates real-time images, allowing healthcare professionals to assess various organs and tissues with remarkable precision. Ultrasound scans serve as a cornerstone for detecting a wide range of conditions in women’s health check ups, spanning from gynaecological issues to monitoring the progress of pregnancy.
Additionally, in our sister clinic, Peek-A-Baby, we have a range of private pregnancy scans available.
Types of Ultrasounds and Detectable Conditions in Women's Health Check Ups
At Ultrasound Care, we take pride in offering a diverse array of ultrasound scans tailored specifically to address women's health needs comprehensively. Our extensive range of services includes:
Abdominal Scan: This scan provides detailed imaging of the organs within the abdomen, including the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, spleen, and kidneys. It is instrumental in diagnosing conditions such as gallstones, liver disease, pancreatitis, and kidney abnormalities. As well as provide insights into uterine or pelvic abnormalities that may present with abdominal symptoms.
Kidney, Ureter & Bladder Scan: This scan focuses specifically on the urinary tract, assessing the kidneys, ureters, and bladder for any abnormalities or obstructions. It is particularly useful in detecting conditions such as kidney stones, urinary tract infections, hydronephrosis (enlargement of the kidneys due to blockage), and bladder tumours. Additionally, this scan can help identify issues related to pelvic organ prolapse or urinary incontinence in women, providing valuable information for treatment planning.
Deep Vein Thrombosis Scan: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when a blood clot forms in one of the deep veins of the body, most commonly in the legs. DVT can pose a significant risk, as the clot may dislodge and travel to the lungs, causing a pulmonary embolism. Ultrasound is the primary imaging modality for diagnosing DVT, as it can visualise the clot and assess blood flow within the affected vein. In women, DVT scans are crucial, especially during pregnancy or postpartum periods when the risk of clot formation may be elevated due to hormonal changes and reduced mobility.
Through these scans, we can detect conditions with exceptional clarity and accuracy, enabling timely intervention and personalised treatment plans.
Our extensive range of services includes the above private women’s scans and gynaecology scans, including fertility scans, post-menopause scans, anomaly scans, and pelvic well-being scans.
Fertility Scans: Fertility scans serve as a valuable starting point for women aspiring to begin their families. These scans efficiently identify gynaecological issues that might impede natural conception and guide individuals toward appropriate fertility treatment options. If attempts to conceive have extended beyond one year without success, a fertility scan can provide insights and offer reassurance.
Pelvic Wellbeing Scans: This ultrasound scan is conducted to offer a comprehensive view of pelvic health and wellbeing. It provides detailed information about the size and condition of the uterus, ovaries, and the lining of the womb. At Ultrasound Care, our Pelvic Well-Being Scans also encompass an Ovarian Cancer scan.
Post-Menopause Scans: Similar to Pelvic Well-Being Scans, a Post-Menopause scan is designed for women experiencing a lack of menstruation for 12 months or more, offering a thorough assessment of gynaecological health. This scan examines the size, shape, and condition of the uterus, ovaries, and the lining of the womb, detecting potential issues such as ovarian cysts or pelvic inflammatory diseases. Additionally, the scan includes cancer screening and monitors the effects of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).

Why Regular Health Check-Ups Matter
Routine women’s health check ups are not merely a formality but a proactive measure to safeguard your health and well-being.

Early detection significantly improves treatment outcomes and quality of life, underscoring the importance of consistent health surveillance as a cornerstone of preventive healthcare.
Early Detection Benefits for Women's Health Check Ups
Regular ultrasound check-ups can catch health issues early, aiding in prevention rather than cure. Early detection of health issues empowers individuals to take proactive steps, explore treatment options, and make informed decisions to mitigate potential complications.
