Assessment of Lymph Nodes, Lumps & Cysts
£120
At Sonoscan Healthcare, we provide professional and accurate private neck ultrasound scans in Stockport and Manchester, designed to assess lymph nodes, swellings, lumps, and cysts.A neck ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive imaging test that helps evaluate soft tissues and structures in the neck, providing clarity and reassurance when you notice swelling or discomfort.
What Is a Neck Ultrasound?
A neck ultrasound scan uses high-frequency sound waves to produce detailed images of structures within the neck, including the lymph nodes, salivary glands and the soft tissues beneath the skin. It is painless, involves no radiation and shows images in real time, which makes it a common first test when a new lump or swelling appears in the neck.When Might You Need a Neck Ultrasound?
Your GP may suggest a neck ultrasound, or you may choose to book one yourself, if you have:
- A new lump or swelling in the neck
- Swollen lymph nodes that have not settled after a few weeks
- A lump that seems to be growing or changing
- A suspected cyst under the skin
- A previously seen lump that needs to be checked again
What Does a Neck Ultrasound Assess?
During your private neck ultrasound, we assess:
- Size and shape of lymph nodes
- Internal characteristics of lymph nodes
- Presence of cysts or fluid-filled structures
- Solid masses or abnormal tissue
- Surrounding soft tissue structures
