Overview of the Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract
The Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract ultrasound is a broad, non-invasive examination that assesses multiple abdominal, pelvic and urinary structures during one home appointment.
It combines areas that would otherwise often be examined separately, making it particularly useful when symptoms overlap or when the clinical question involves more than one organ system.
The abdominal component can assess the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, pancreas, spleen and kidneys.
The pelvic component is tailored to the individual's anatomy and clinical indication. This can include the uterus and ovaries or the prostate and surrounding pelvic structures.
The urinary component evaluates the kidneys and bladder and can assess bladder filling and emptying where required.
Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves rather than ionising radiation.
It can identify many structural abnormalities, including cysts, gallstones, selected kidney stones, fibroids, organ enlargement, urinary obstruction and abnormal fluid collections.
However, a broad ultrasound does not detect every abdominal or pelvic condition.
Bowel gas, body habitus and the position of deeper structures can limit visibility, and some conditions require CT, MRI, endoscopy, cystoscopy or specialist imaging.
This service is provided as a home visit only.
What Does the Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract Assess?
This combined ultrasound assesses several organ systems during one examination.
Liver - Assesses liver size, texture and visible focal structural abnormalities.
Gallbladder - Evaluates for gallstones, wall abnormalities and other visible changes.
Bile ducts - Assesses visible ducts for abnormal dilatation.
Pancreas - Examines visible portions where bowel gas allows adequate imaging.
Spleen - Assesses splenic size and visible internal structure.
Kidneys - Assesses kidney size, shape, cysts, selected stones and signs of urinary obstruction.
Visible urinary drainage system - Dilated or otherwise visible portions of the ureters can sometimes be assessed.
Urinary bladder - Evaluates bladder structure when adequately filled.
Post-void residual urine - Where clinically appropriate, the bladder can be measured after urination to assess emptying.
Uterus - Where relevant, assesses uterine size, shape and visible structural abnormalities.
Endometrium - The uterine lining can be assessed where clinically appropriate.
Ovaries - Where relevant, assesses ovarian size, cysts and other visible abnormalities.
Prostate - Where relevant, prostate size and selected structural features can be assessed.
Pelvic or abdominal fluid - Abnormal free fluid can be identified.
Selected cysts or masses - Structural lesions can sometimes be identified and characterised.
Who May Benefit From the Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract?
This combined scan may be useful when symptoms or previous test results involve more than one abdominal or pelvic system.
People with abdominal and pelvic pain - Several organs can be assessed during one examination.
People with urinary symptoms alongside abdominal discomfort - The kidneys, bladder and abdominal structures can be reviewed together.
People with recurrent urinary tract infections - Structural urinary abnormalities can sometimes contribute.
People with abnormal liver or kidney blood-test results - Imaging can provide structural information alongside laboratory findings.
People with pelvic pressure, bloating or swelling - Pelvic and abdominal organs can be assessed.
People with blood in the urine under investigation - Renal and bladder imaging may form part of a wider clinical pathway.
People with known cysts, fibroids or other structural findings - Follow-up imaging can document selected changes.
People with difficulty emptying the bladder - Post-void residual urine can be measured where required.
Symptoms and Reasons to Consider the Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract
A combined scan can be useful when symptoms cannot easily be attributed to one specific organ.
Persistent abdominal pain - Ultrasound can assess several common structural causes.
Pelvic or lower abdominal discomfort - Pelvic organs and the bladder can be examined.
Recurrent bloating or abdominal fullness - Organ enlargement, cysts or fluid are among the findings ultrasound can identify.
Urinary frequency or urgency - Bladder and urinary-tract assessment may provide useful structural information.
Difficulty emptying the bladder - Residual urine can be measured.
Blood in the urine - Kidney and bladder assessment may form part of the investigation.
Abnormal liver or kidney blood tests - Structural imaging can complement biochemical testing.
Heavy or irregular periods with pelvic symptoms - Uterine and ovarian structures can be assessed where relevant.
Severe or rapidly worsening abdominal or pelvic pain, heavy bleeding, persistent vomiting, inability to pass urine, visible blood in the urine with clots, fever with severe flank pain, collapse or other acute symptoms require urgent medical assessment.
A routine home ultrasound should not delay emergency care.
How to Prepare for the Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract
This combined examination requires preparation for both upper abdominal and pelvic/urinary imaging.
Following the fasting and bladder instructions carefully can materially improve image quality.
What Happens During the Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract?
The scan is performed at your home using portable diagnostic ultrasound equipment.
Is the Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract Safe?
Diagnostic ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves rather than X-rays.
It does not use ionising radiation.
The examination is non-invasive and normally requires no injections or contrast material.
Mild probe pressure can occasionally feel uncomfortable over an already tender abdominal or pelvic area.

When Will I Receive My Results?
The current turnaround is approximately 1 day after the ultrasound examination.
General observations may sometimes be explained during or shortly after the scan.
The formal written report provides the authorised imaging findings.
Additional blood tests, CT, MRI, specialist pelvic imaging or urology/gynaecology assessment may be recommended when a finding requires further investigation.
Understanding Your Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract Results
A normal report may describe the abdominal, pelvic and urinary structures examined as having no significant visible structural abnormalities.
Potential findings include gallstones, liver steatosis-related appearances, renal cysts, hydronephrosis, bladder retention, fibroids, ovarian cysts or other structural changes.
Many ultrasound findings are benign and incidental.
An abnormal scan does not automatically establish a final diagnosis.
Similarly, a normal scan does not exclude every gastrointestinal, urinary or gynaecological condition.
Results should be interpreted alongside symptoms, blood and urine tests and clinical assessment.
What Can the Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract Detect?
Gallstones - Stones within the gallbladder can usually be visualised clearly.
Fatty liver appearances - Structural changes compatible with hepatic steatosis can be identified.
Renal cysts - Many kidney cysts are readily visible.
Hydronephrosis - Dilatation of the kidney collecting system can indicate urinary obstruction.
Selected kidney stones - Some renal calculi can be demonstrated.
Bladder retention - Residual urine can be measured after voiding.
Fibroids - Uterine fibroids can be identified where pelvic imaging is relevant.
Ovarian cysts - Many cystic ovarian findings can be characterised.
Organ enlargement or abdominal fluid - Structural enlargement and significant free fluid can be detected.
Limitations of the Abdomen, Pelvic & Urinary Tract
Not every organ is completely visible - Bowel gas can limit views of the pancreas and deeper structures.
Ureters are not normally visible along their full length - Small ureteric stones can be missed.
Some pelvic conditions require transvaginal imaging - A home transabdominal scan may not answer every gynaecological question.
Ultrasound does not replace endoscopy or cystoscopy - These tests directly assess structures ultrasound cannot.
Cancer cannot be comprehensively excluded - Further CT, MRI, endoscopy or biopsy may sometimes be required.
A broad scan can identify incidental findings - These may need more focused investigation.
