Most commonly performed tests

Diagnostic imaging

  • Ultrasound scan – a painless and safe assessment of internal organs, blood vessels, joints, and soft tissues without ionising radiation
  • X-ray – standard imaging of bones, joints, and the chest, helping to detect fractures, inflammation, and other abnormalities
  • CT scan – two-dimensional or three-dimensional imaging of internal organs, allowing for the detection of even the most subtle abnormalities

Endoscopy

  • Gastroscopy – an examination of the upper digestive tract, helping to diagnose disorders of the stomach and duodenum
  • Colonoscopy – an examination of the large bowel (colon), which is particularly important for the prevention and diagnosis of bowel cancer

Key laboratory tests

  • Full blood count (FBC) – a basic indicator of overall health
  • Biochemistry tests – assessment of liver and kidney function, blood glucose levels, and lipid profile
  • Hormone tests – determination of thyroid, sex, and other hormone levels

What you need to know about our most common procedures

Ultrasound scan

Why it is performed: to assess internal organs (liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys), blood vessels, the thyroid gland, joints, and soft tissues.

What happens during the procedure: during the scan, you will lie on an examination couch, and the clinician will use a probe with gel to send ultrasound waves and view the images of your organs on a screen. The scan is painless and takes 15 to 30 minutes.

Endoscopy

Why it is performed: to diagnose digestive tract disorders where ulcers, inflammation, tumours, or other abnormalities are suspected.

What happens during the procedure: during the test, a thin, flexible tube (endoscope) with a light and camera is inserted through your mouth (gastroscopy) or back passage. The procedure allows for tissue samples (biopsies) to be taken for further analysis. An endoscopy can be performed under local anaesthetic or sedation/general anaesthetic, depending on your preference and the type of investigation.

Laboratory tests

Why it is performed: to assess overall health, diagnose conditions, and monitor the effectiveness of treatment.

What happens during the procedure: a blood sample is usually taken from a vein in your arm. The procedure takes only a few minutes and causes minimal discomfort.
