Ultrasound Neck

Ultrasound neck imaging is a non-invasive diagnostic tool used to assess head and neck conditions, such as thyroid nodules, cysts, or lymph node abnormalities, guiding effective treatment plans. Expert care ensures accurate diagnosis. At ENT Central in Palmerston North, Dr. Naveed Basheeth provides specialized, compassionate ultrasound services.

What Is Ultrasound Neck?

Ultrasound neck imaging uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of the neck’s structures, including the thyroid, parathyroid, lymph nodes, and salivary glands. It helps diagnose conditions like thyroid nodules, cysts, goitre, or lymph node abnormalities, often linked to thyroid disorders, infections, or cancer. Dr. Naveed Basheeth employs state-of-the-art ultrasound technology, sometimes paired with fine needle aspiration, to deliver precise diagnostic insights for tailored treatment plans.
