Types of test and scan:

Cardiac event monitor

A cardiac event monitor, also called a cardiac event recorder, is a small device you wear or carry that records your heart's electrical activity, in the same way as an ECG (electrocardiogram), but over a much longer period, usually for a few days, or sometimes up to a month.

Find out what a carotid Doppler scan involves, why it's used, how to prepare, what happens during and after, and what your results could mean.

Colposcopy

Find out what a colposcopy involves, why it's used, how to prepare, what happens during and after, and what your results could mean for you.

Cone biopsy (cervical biopsy)

Cytology

Echocardiogram

Find out what an echocardiogram (echo) involves, why you might need one, the different types, what happens during the scan, and possible risks

Electrocardiogram (ECG)

Find out what an ECG (electrocardiogram) checks, why you might need one, the different types, what happens during the test, and possible risks.

Glucose breath test (hydrogen breath test)

A glucose breath test, also called a hydrogen breath test, checks how well your gut digests sugar by measuring the gases in your breath. You drink a sugary solution, usually containing glucose, and then breathe into a device at set intervals over the next couple of hours.

Histopathology

Histopathology is the study of diseased tissue, using a microscope, to help diagnose your condition. A doctor called a histopathologist examines a sample of tissue, usually taken during a biopsy or an operation, and writes a report describing what they find.

Hysteroscopy

Find out what a hysteroscopy involves, including why it's used, how to prepare, what happens during the test, and the possible risks and benefits.

Mole assessment

A mole assessment is when a doctor, nurse or trained specialist examines a mole, or several moles, on your skin to check for any signs that could suggest skin cancer. They may look at the mole with the naked eye or use a magnifying tool called a dermatoscope to see it in more detail.

Penile lesion biopsy

A biopsy of a penile lesion is when a doctor removes a small sample of an unusual growth, lump or patch of skin on your penis so it can be examined in a laboratory. This helps them find out exactly what the lesion is and whether it needs treatment.

Prostate Cancer Screening Services

Rectal examination under anaesthetic (EUA)

If rectal pain, bleeding, lumps or changes in your bowel habits are causing concern, a rectal EUA at Nuffield Health Chichester Hospital can help identify the cause. Our experienced colorectal specialists use this procedure to assess rectal and anal conditions in detail and guide the most appropriate treatment plan for you.
