Private Ultrasound in London: What You Need to Know

Private ultrasound in London offers patients a fast, convenient alternative to NHS waiting lists. With NHS waiting times for diagnostic ultrasound often exceeding several weeks, private ultrasound provides access to expert imaging within days — or even the same day.

Unlike X-ray, ultrasound does not use ionising radiation. It uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of internal organs and structures. This makes it completely safe for patients of all ages, including pregnant women and children.

A wide range of ultrasound examinations are available privately, including abdominal ultrasound (for gallstones, liver disease, kidney problems), pelvic ultrasound (for gynaecological conditions), musculoskeletal ultrasound (for tendon and joint problems), and vascular ultrasound (for blood flow assessment).

At Radpid Diagnostics, we offer private ultrasound at our Greenwich clinic and as a home visit service within 20 miles of DA2. No GP referral is required — you can self-refer directly. All scans are performed by HCPC-registered sonographers and reported by an accredited consultant radiologist.

Prices start from £120 for a single-region ultrasound at our Greenwich clinic, and from £180 for a home visit. Consultant radiologist-led report is included in all prices.
