Private Abdomen, Pelvic, Kidney & Urinary Tract Ultrasound
Same-day abdominal, pelvic, kidney and urinary tract ultrasound for adults and children in London (Harley Street/W1G), St Albans, and Wokingham. If you searched for “abdomen and pelvis ultrasound,” “kidney & urinary tract scan,” “ultrasound for UTI,” “does abdominal ultrasound show bladder/kidneys,” or “pelvic ultrasound near me,” this page covers indications, what the scan shows, prep (fasting & full bladder), duration, prices, and booking.
What does a complete abdomen & pelvis ultrasound show?
Abdomen: liver, biliary tree (gallbladder & common bile duct), pancreas (as visibility allows), spleen, aorta (AAA screening). Pelvis: uterus, endometrium and ovaries in women; bladder and prostate region (TA) in men; adnexal structures and pelvic free fluid. Typical reasons include abdominal or pelvic pain, abnormal LFTs, suspected gallstones, urinary symptoms, pelvic pressure/bloating, or a palpable lump/hernia check.
Pelvic ultrasound (uterus/ovaries or prostate region & bladder)
- Women: uterus size & shape, fibroids/polyps suspicion, endometrial thickness, ovaries (follicles, cysts), adnexa, free fluid; bladder wall and residual if combined with renal tract.
- Men: bladder assessment (capacity, wall), impression of prostate on bladder base (TA). Dedicated prostate imaging is separate.
- Technique: transabdominal for overview; transvaginal can be offered (with consent) for detail when appropriate; chaperone available.
Kidneys, ureters & bladder (renal/urinary tract)
- Kidneys: size, cortical thickness, cysts/masses, stones, and hydronephrosis.
- Ureters: proximal segments sometimes seen if dilated; distal ureters often obscured—additional imaging may be advised if obstruction is suspected.
- Bladder: capacity, wall thickness, masses, stones/debris, diverticula, and post-void residual (PVR).
UTI & kidney stones—what ultrasound can and can’t do
- UTI: Ultrasound does not diagnose infection alone; diagnosis uses symptoms and urine tests. We look for complications or contributors—hydronephrosis, retention, stones, or structural variants.
- Kidney stones: Often visible (especially if obstructing) plus secondary signs. Small or distal ureteric stones can be hard to visualise; further imaging may be recommended.
- Bladder cancer: Ultrasound may show masses/wall irregularity but isn’t a definitive screen. Persistent haematuria usually needs cystoscopy and/or CT urogram.
Preparation: fasting & full bladder
- Abdomen: Fast from food for 6 hours (water allowed). Avoid fizzy drinks.
- Pelvis & Renal/Urinary: Arrive with a comfortably full bladder. Drink ~500–750 ml water 45–60 minutes before; don’t pass urine until after the initial images and PVR check.
- Periods: Abdomen/renal scans can be done during menses. For optimal endometrial detail, scanning just after bleeding often helps; urgent cases anytime.
- Medication: Continue as normal unless advised otherwise.
How the scan is performed
- Brief history: symptoms, UTI/stones history, lab results, previous imaging.
- Transabdominal scanning: Real-time assessment with measurements; Doppler used when indicated.
- Bladder & PVR: Images with full bladder, then after voiding to assess emptying.
- Transvaginal option: Where helpful and with consent/chaperone.
- Results: Same-day verbal impression; structured report with key images provided shortly after.
Sample report wording
- Normal renal tract: “Both kidneys normal in size and echotexture with preserved corticomedullary differentiation; no calculus or hydronephrosis. Bladder smooth-walled, no focal lesion; pre-void x ml, post-void y ml.”
- Hydronephrosis: “Right kidney shows moderate pelvicalyceal dilatation with proximal ureteric dilatation—features of obstruction; correlate clinically and consider further imaging.”
- Pelvic uterus/ovaries: “Uterus anteverted, endometrium measures x mm appropriate for phase; ovaries normal with small follicles; no adnexal mass or free fluid.”
- Gallstones (if combined): “Multiple echogenic foci with posterior acoustic shadowing in the gallbladder; no wall thickening or pericholecystic fluid. CBD x mm (within normal).”
Prices
- Abdominal ultrasound: typically £140–£220

- Kidney & urinary tract ultrasound: typically £140–£220 (includes bladder & PVR)

Frequently asked questions
Does an abdominal ultrasound include kidneys and bladder?
A complete abdominal ultrasound can include the kidneys and bladder, but a dedicated renal/urinary tract ultrasound provides fuller assessment (including pre- and post-void volumes). We can combine all regions in one visit.
Why do I need a full bladder for pelvic/urinary ultrasound?
A full bladder acts as an acoustic window to pelvic organs and the bladder wall, and lets us measure post-void residual to assess emptying.
Can ultrasound detect a UTI?
Ultrasound doesn’t diagnose infection by itself; it looks for complications such as hydronephrosis, stones, or retention. Diagnosis relies on symptoms and urine tests.
Can ultrasound detect kidney stones?
Often yes—especially renal stones or obstructing stones that cause dilatation. Tiny or distal ureteric stones can be difficult to see; further imaging may be recommended.
Does ultrasound screen for bladder cancer?
It can show masses/wall irregularity but is not a definitive screen. Unexplained haematuria or higher risk often needs cystoscopy and/or CT urogram.
Can I have the scan during my period?
Yes for abdomen/renal scans. For pelvic endometrial detail, scanning just after menses is often clearer; urgent cases can be scanned at any time.
How long do scans take and when are results available?
Abdomen/pelvis/renal areas each take ~15–20 minutes; combined ~25–40 minutes. Same-day verbal summary; written report with images follows shortly after.
