Private Ultrasound Scan Services

Choosing a private ultrasound scan at The Woodlands Suite offers several advantages, including shorter waiting times, personalised expert care from an experienced Consultant MSK Radiologist, and access to advanced imaging technology enhancing diagnostic precision. This ensures accurate and timely diagnosis to support effective treatment planning.

An ultrasound scan is particularly useful in the assessment of conditions such as  

• Tendinosis or tendonitis
• Bursal impingement or bursitis
• Rotator cuff tears
• Arthritis or wear and tear

Ultrasound guided injection therapy with corticosteroids and/or local anaesthetic is considered for patients presenting with musculoskeletal conditions that may benefit from injectable medicines.  A steroid injection can provide pain relief and inflammation control and allow you to return to daily activity with less pain / pain free and may delay the need for invasive surgical intervention.

Ultrasound allows the clinician to visualise the needle and needle tip in real time as it enters the body. The clinician can navigate the needle to the treatment area accurately. This ensures the precise injection of the medication at the origin of the symptoms.

We welcome patients from across Birmingham, the Midlands and  the UK. We have very high standards of care and offer access to fast results.
