A comprehensive ultrasound assessment of the elbow joint, tendons, and ligaments to diagnose common conditions like tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, and biceps tendon tears.
Persistent elbow pain can make simple tasks incredibly difficult, affecting your work, hobbies, and overall quality of life. An Elbow Ultrasound Scan offers a clear, non-invasive way to pinpoint the cause of your discomfort, guiding you towards effective treatment and recovery. At our Marylebone clinic on Weymouth Street, same-day appointments are available and no GP referral is needed.
An Elbow Ultrasound Scan uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of the soft tissues around your elbow joint. This allows our specialist sonographers to visualise tendons, ligaments, muscles, and nerves, identifying inflammation, tears, or other abnormalities without radiation.
Upon arrival at our CQC-compliant clinic at 29 Weymouth Street, Marylebone, you'll be greeted by our friendly reception team.
Your HCPC-registered sonographer will discuss your symptoms and medical history to understand your specific concerns.
You'll be asked to expose your elbow. A small amount of gel will be applied, and the sonographer will move a transducer over the area, capturing detailed images.
The sonographer will explain their findings during the scan, answering any questions you may have.
After the scan, you'll receive a preliminary verbal report. A comprehensive written report will be provided within 24 hours, often sooner.
Your detailed written report, prepared by our specialist sonographers, will clearly explain all findings and any detected abnormalities. We encourage you to share this report with your GP or specialist for further management.
Our HCPC-registered sonographers are available Monday to Saturday. Results discussed immediately, written report within 24 hours.
