An ultrasound is used to examine the abdominal area (gallbladder, liver, pancreas, kidneys), neck area, blood vessels and blood flow, muscles and joints. The doctor makes the decision on whether you need an ultrasound, but if you have health concerns and want peace of mind, you can also come for the examination without a referral.
Please note:
- Booking an appointment in advance is required for an ultrasound. Please arrive for the examination on time (min. 10 min before).
- Proper patient preparation is essential for a successful ultrasound examination.
- If you have a referral from your general practitioner, please call 1330 to book an appointment or email info@confido.ee and inform customer service of the referral.
- In the case of a multi-region ultrasound, each region requires a separate referral and appointment time.
- Without a referral, we perform routine ultrasounds that do not involve punctures or biopsies.
- Paid ultrasounds can be directly booked through the online system, in which case you will need to pay for the examination yourself.
- Confido does not perform ultrasounds on nerves, renal arteries, mammary glands and fingers. In addition, Confido does not carry out brain research on infants. Ultrasounds of limb arteries are only performed with a specialist’s referral (ultrasounds of peripheral arteries are not performed with a family doctor’s referral).
