        What you need to know about our most common procedures<\/span><\/h2>\n\n

        Ultrasound scan<\/span><\/h3>\n\n

        Why it is performed:<\/b> to assess internal organs (liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys), blood vessels, the thyroid gland, joints, and soft tissues.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

        What happens during the procedure:<\/b> 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.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

        Endoscopy<\/span><\/h3>\n\n

        Why it is performed:<\/b> to diagnose digestive tract disorders where ulcers, inflammation, tumours, or other abnormalities are suspected.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

        What happens during the procedure:<\/b> 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.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

        Laboratory tests<\/span><\/h3>\n\n
