Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to image soft tissue in real time — no radiation involved. Our sonographers are ASAR-accredited with sub-specialty interests across musculoskeletal, abdominal, vascular and obstetric imaging.
What to expect
- Most studies take 20 to 45 minutes, depending on the area being imaged.
- Warm gel is applied to the skin so the probe glides smoothly.
- We talk you through the imaging as we go — the sonographer can show you what's being captured.
How to prepare
- Abdominal scans: fast for 6 hours beforehand, with no food or water, and don't smoke in that time. If you must take medication, take it with as little water as possible.
- Pelvic scans: drink 1L of water in the hour before your appointment and don't empty your bladder.
- Pregnancy dating scans (under 13 weeks): arrive with a moderately full bladder.
- Most other studies need no preparation. Call reception if you're unsure.
General ultrasound has a private gap from $115. Concession and pension card holders are bulk billed. Reception confirms the cost when you book.
