For physiotherapists
You have usually worked out what is wrong before the scan confirms it. Our job is to get the picture quickly, report it properly, and send it back to you, so the patient in front of you next week is further forward rather than still waiting.
What you can send us
Self-pay prices, from. Multiple body areas in one visit are priced on a sliding scale, so ask when you call.
MRI
The scan that answers most joint, spine and soft-tissue questions. Reported by a consultant radiologist.
From £350
No referral needed. Your patient can book directly, or you can call and we will arrange it.
At Weybridge, Harley Street, Stockport, Brighton and Swansea.
Ultrasound
Live imaging of tendon, bursa and soft tissue, with the option of moving the joint while we look.
From £190
A referral is required, and we can arrange one. Call us if you are unsure what we can take from you directly.
At Weybridge, Harley Street, Stockport and Brighton.
Ultrasound-guided injection
Placed under live ultrasound by a consultant radiologist, so the injectate goes where it is meant to go.
From £500
Consultant-led. Call us and we will arrange the assessment.
At Weybridge, Harley Street, Stockport and Brighton.
X-ray
The quickest answer on bone, and often the right first look after trauma.
From £120
A referral is required. We can accept one from a physiotherapist in some cases, so call before sending your patient.
At Weybridge, Stockport and Brighton.
How to refer

What comes back to you
The scan is reported by a consultant radiologist within a short turnaround, and the report is written to be useful to the person treating the patient rather than only to another doctor. Images are available for transfer, and you get a named contact rather than a switchboard.
When the scan is not the end of it
Where a guided injection is the right next step, a consultant radiologist can place it under live ultrasound at Weybridge, Harley Street, Stockport and Brighton. Physiotherapy is on site at Weybridge and Stockport, and sports and exercise medicine at Weybridge, Harley Street, Stockport and Brighton, so a patient who needs more than a report does not have to start again somewhere else.
The joint, bone and muscle pathway packages the scan with a consultation where a specialist talks the findings through with your patient in person, which is often what turns a report into a plan they will actually follow.
Leaflets for your clinic
Every one of our patient leaflets is printable on two sides of A5 and carries a QR code to the page it came from. The joint, bone and muscle leaflet is the one most clinics hand out; there is also one per centre covering what we scan there and what a patient needs to bring.
