Our Consultant Musculoskeletal Radiologists offer a comprehensive range of techniques to image the musculoskeletal system. Dr Lloyd-Jones, Dr Morris and Dr Peace provide expert opinions using plain X-rays, Ultrasound, CT and MRI to diagnose disorders of bone, joints and soft tissues.
If you have a problem affecting joints, bones or soft tissues then we would be pleased to accept a referral for imaging, either from your Hospital Consultant, GP, Physiotherapist or other allied health professional .
We provide rapid and expert services in imaging large joints such as the hip, knee, and shoulder, and the small joints, such as the elbow, wrist, ankle and joints of the hand and foot.
Common conditions we look for include tennis elbow, Morton’s neuromas of the feet, synovitis, Baker’s cysts, Achilles tendon problems and plantar fasciitis. We are also able to investigate soft tissue lumps such as ganglion cysts, lipomas or soft tissue tumours.
If you would like to find out more about our services you or your referring clinician can get in contact using the enquiry page.
