A Unilateral Breast Scan with Axilla is a focused ultrasound examination of one breast and the underarm (axilla) area. At ReliableScan, this scan is performed using advanced ultrasound technology to detect and assess any abnormalities, giving you clarity and reassurance about your breast health.
What does this scan include?
Detailed ultrasound of one breast
Examination of the axilla (underarm lymph nodes)
Identification of cysts, lumps, or other abnormalities
A clear, written report provided after your appointment
A 20–30 minute scan carried out by experienced sonographers
No GP referral required
Please note:
This scan is suitable for patients aged 18 and over. If any concerns are identified, we may recommend follow-up with your GP or a specialist for further evaluation.
Why choose a Unilateral Breast Scan with Axilla?
This scan is often recommended if you are experiencing symptoms such as a lump, pain, or swelling in one breast or underarm. By including the axilla, we can also check nearby lymph nodes for added reassurance.
Preparing for your appointment
No special preparation is needed for this scan. We recommend wearing a two-piece outfit for comfort, as you will need to undress from the waist up.
