ULTRASOUND HAMBURG

Ultrasound diagnostics in Hamburg – Private practice Dr. Nicola Meyer am Leinpfad

In my private practice for radiology and ultrasound diagnostics at Leinpfad 1 in Hamburg, I offer you a comprehensive range of ultrasound examinations at the highest level. With the latest high-resolution ultrasound equipment and my many years of experience as a specialist in radiology and neuroradiology, you will receive precise, painless and radiation-free diagnostics.

Breast sonography – Ultrasound of the breast in Hamburg

Breast ultrasound is one of the most important examinations in breast cancer screening and diagnostics. It complements mammography and is particularly valuable for dense breast tissue that is difficult to assess on an X-ray. Breast ultrasound can be used to precisely visualize and assess lumps, cysts and other changes in the breast.

In my private practice, I use high-resolution ultrasound equipment with a 3D panorama function, which enables complete documentation of the entire breast tissue. Breast sonography is particularly suitable for:

• Women with dense breast tissue as a supplement to mammography
• Clarification of palpable lumps or hardenings in the breast
• Follow-up after breast surgery or biopsies
• Young women for whom mammography is not yet recommended
• Complementary screening at any age – pain-free and without radiation exposure

The breast ultrasound is painless, takes about 15-20 minutes and requires no special preparation. You will receive the results on the same day with a clear discussion of the findings.

Thyroid ultrasound

Thyroid sonography is the method of choice for assessing the thyroid gland. Nodules, enlargements (goiter) and inflammatory changes such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis or Graves’ disease can be precisely visualized. With the help of Doppler sonography, I also assess the blood flow, which provides important information on the dignity.

Abdominal sonography – ultrasound of the abdominal organs

Abdominal sonography includes the assessment of the liver, gallbladder, spleen, pancreas, kidneys and abdominal wall. Gallstones, cysts, fatty liver, kidney stones and hernias can be detected quickly and reliably.

Joint, muscle and soft tissue ultrasound

Musculoskeletal ultrasound enables dynamic assessment of joints, tendons and muscles in real time and in motion. It provides valuable diagnostic information, particularly for shoulder, knee and hip complaints, tendonitis and unclear soft tissue swelling.

Vascular ultrasound and duplex sonography

Duplex sonography can be used to visualize the blood flow through the vessels. The examination of the carotid arteries (carotid duplex) is used to determine the risk of arteriosclerosis and is an important component of cardiovascular prevention.

Lymph node ultrasound

High-resolution ultrasound of the lymph nodes enables the precise assessment of enlarged or abnormal lymph nodes in the neck, armpit and groin. This examination is particularly indispensable in oncological aftercare and in cases of unclear lymph node enlargement.

Costs and assumption of costs

The cost of an ultrasound scan is 150 euros per region. If medically indicated, the costs are usually covered by private health insurance. Self-payers are very welcome.
