• Upper/General abdominal ultrasound scans- includes assessment of the aorta (including screening of first-degree relatives of patients with an abdominal aortic aneurysm), biliary tract, gallbladder, inferior vena cava, kidneys, liver, pancreas, retroperitoneum, and spleen
• Pelvic Ultrasound Scans - including transabdominal and transvaginal

Practices can refer patients who have already been referred to secondary care and are still awaiting an appointment.
