Who it's for
This scan may be recommended if you have symptoms in this area, an abnormal test result, or a known condition that needs checking.
What it shows
What to expect
No preparation is needed. You can eat and drink normally and take any usual medications. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. You may be asked to remove trousers or underwear for the scan, but your comfort and dignity will always be respected.
Your consultant applies a small amount of gel and moves a handheld probe over the area, explaining what they see as they go.
You can return to your day straight afterwards. Your consultant explains what they have seen before you leave.
Your report
Your consultant talks you through what the scan shows while you are still in the room.
A written report follows, usually within 24 hours. If anything needs a closer look, we can arrange MRI, CT, blood tests or a specialist referral.
Book an initial consultation with one of our consultants for £50. If you go on to have imaging or a procedure, the fee is put towards its cost.
You should seek medical advice if you notice, a new or persistent lump in the testicle, testicular pain that doesn’t improve within a day or two, swelling, redness, or warmth, a testicle that feels harder or different than usual, a sudden, severe pain in the scrotum (requires urgent assessment) or concerns about fertility or previous injury
Ultrasound uses sound waves, not radiation, and has no known side effects. A small amount of gel is applied to the skin and a handheld probe is moved gently over the area. You can return to your day straight afterwards.
Tell us what you would like looked at and we will come back to you with times. You do not need a referral.
