Frequently Asked Questions About Radiology

How should I prepare for an ultrasound scan?

Preparation depends on the type of ultrasound. For an abdominal ultrasound, you may need to fast for 8 hours prior. For a pelvic ultrasound, you typically need a full bladder and should drink plenty of water before your appointment.

Are digital X-rays safe?

Yes, digital X-rays use significantly less radiation compared to traditional film X-rays. They are very safe, though you should inform our staff if you are or might be pregnant before any X-ray procedure.

Do I need an appointment for a scan?

While we do accommodate walk-ins for some basic X-rays, we highly recommend booking an appointment for ultrasounds, colour doppler, and specialized imaging to minimize your wait time.

When will I get my imaging results?

For most routine scans like X-rays and basic ultrasounds, reports are available on the same day. Specialized imaging reports may take 24-48 hours. Our consultant radiologist will review the images and provide a detailed report.
