If your doctor has recommended an ultrasound, you don't need to travel far. Hargreaves Hospital offers advanced diagnostic ultrasound right here in Mandeville, Manchester — with an experienced team and prompt, clearly reported results.
What is an ultrasound?
An ultrasound (sonography) uses sound waves to create real-time images of the inside of your body. It's safe, painless and involves no radiation, which is why it's used so widely — from monitoring a pregnancy to checking the abdomen, pelvis and blood vessels.
Types of ultrasound we offer
- Prenatal and obstetric ultrasound
- Abdominal imaging
- Pelvic imaging
- Vascular (Doppler) studies
- Routine and specialised diagnostic scans
How to prepare
Preparation depends on the type of scan. Some abdominal scans ask you to avoid eating for a few hours beforehand; some pelvic scans ask you to arrive with a full bladder. When you book, our team will tell you exactly what to do — if you're unsure, just ask.
