Really impressed with every aspect of this MRI service. The staff, facilities and price were very good (certainly compared to others). Also received the scan result, radiologist report and images before the end of the day! Exceptional.

About musculoskeletal ultrasound scans
What these scans look at
Musculoskeletal ultrasound uses sound waves to look at the soft tissues around a joint: tendons, muscles, ligaments and the fluid-filled sacs called bursae. There is no radiation. We scan the shoulder, knee, elbow, wrist, hand, ankle, foot, forearm and hip.
You might come with a tendon or muscle injury, swelling or a lump near a joint, or joint pain that has not settled. The scan can watch a tendon move as you use it, and nothing encloses you.
On the day you uncover the area being scanned. Warm gel goes on the skin and a small probe is moved over it. You may be asked to bend or move the joint. Your written radiologist report is included.
Real Stories. Real Lives Changed.
Trust isn’t built by promises — it’s earned through experience. Here’s what real patients have to say about their journey with MyScanHub.
Awesome. Easy to book, great pricing and no referral needed. Was seen on time, done in 15 minutes, lovely staff and comfortable facilities. Report received the same day! So impressed — would not hesitate to recommend. Thank you
Could not recommend more. We had a reassurance baby ultrasound and from the moment we got there to the moment we left we had the best service with the nicest people. The receptionist was so warm and kind and the Sonographer really went above and beyond to get us some lovely clear pictures. Our whole experience was perfect thank you!

Fixed self-pay price with a written radiologist report. No GP referral, no hidden fees, and free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
Common questions
Musculoskeletal Ultrasound questions, answered
What does a musculoskeletal ultrasound look at?
It looks at the soft tissues around a joint: tendons, muscles, ligaments and bursae. It can help show things like swelling, fluid or a tear. A radiologist reviews the images and writes a report.
Ultrasound or MRI: which one do I need?
They are used for different things. Ultrasound uses sound waves and no radiation, and can watch a tendon move in real time. MRI uses a magnetic field and radio waves, with no ionising radiation. If you are unsure, ask us or book a GP consultation, a separate service.
Do I need a referral from my GP?
No. You can book yourself online, by phone on 0800 151 2227, or on WhatsApp. The price is fixed and includes your written radiologist report. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before.
What is an ultrasound guided injection?
That is a treatment, not a scan. Ultrasound is used to guide the needle to the right spot. Because it is a procedure, a clinician checks it is suitable for you before it is arranged. Start online, on WhatsApp, or call 0800 151 2227.
Can I have both sides scanned?
Yes. Scans are available for the left side, the right side or both. The price is fixed and shown before you book, with no hidden fees, and your written radiologist report is included.
