Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Scans

Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a common, affordable, harmless, and painless modality used by radiologists to generate real-time images of muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, joints, and cartilage.
MSK Ultrasound can help to identify a range of acute and chronic inflammatory or injuries related conditions such as tendonitis, bursitis, injures, trapped nerves, arthritis, tears, joint problems, and masses such as tumours or cysts.

This is my third visit to the London Private Ultrasound. The earlier ones were in 2022, then 2024 I got my appointment very quickly, at an agreed and mutually convenient time. I specifically asked for Dr Reza again. As before, he was professional, kind and unhurried, There was ample time to discuss findings which was very reassuring. I received the full report the following morning I continue to recommend this excellent service to my colleagues. Many thanks for keeping up such high standards !

I had a private echocardiogram with Dr Hana Pospisilova. She made me feel comfortable and at ease throughout the appointment, and was very professional and reassuring. Being able to book a private appointment at the weekend was incredibly helpful and convenient around my work commitments. Thank you

My Cardiology appointment with Dr. Farveh Vakilian at St Albans was 1st class in every respect - easily booked, professional reception, unrushed and thorough consultation and a prompt and detailed report letter by email. Dr. Vakilian’s depth of knowledge and experience were reassuring throughout. Thankyou

I was very well looked after. I had an echocardiogram, and the doctor made me feel very comfortable. She took her time to listen to me, answer my questions and give me advice. I really appreciated how kind, caring and reassuring she was.
