Thyroid Ultrasound by Consultant Radiologist

Provided by ‘FRZ Sono-Tech Ltd.’

Thyroid Scan.

Personalised service by a NHS Consultant Radiologist Scanning Privately on Thursday Evenings!

A full Consultation with your Radiologist is included in the below price.

We will give you a report of your findings, but the images will only be sent to your NHS GP or Medical Clinic (with your consent).

This can determine if a lump in your neck is arising from your thyroid or a neighbouring structure. It can also assess any thyroid nodules to determine if they are benign or have more sinister features. If so, your Radiologist will suggest a referral for a thyroid nodule biopsy at a local hospital. If you are found to have any thyroid nodules, an ultrasound can also be used to check for any change in size of these nodules over time.

Your Consultant Radiologist – Dr. Dhafer A. Deeab
(BUPA recognised Consultant)

Having graduated in 1999 from Babil University, Iraq, I earned my MBCHB degree. I was then awarded a fellowship to study radiology as part of the Iraqi Board training program. I performed my foundation training in Babylon University Teaching Hospital between 1999 and 2001. I subsequently started my radiology training in 2001.

In 2005, I left Iraq to come to the United Kingdom. I passed my language and medical exams in 2006 and received my GMC registration. I started my honorary registrar job in St Mary’s Hospital in London and joined the radiology training program in 2008. I was granted a fellowship in MRI in 2009.

I began my Locum Consultant position in the Royal Free Hospital in June 2010, which was followed by a permanent position as a Consultant Musculoskeletal Radiologist in Epsom and St. Helier University Hospitals.

I am a member of the British and European Societies of Skeletal Radiology.

I have over 5 years’ experience in both NHS and private hospitals. I have performed more than 10,000 image guided musculoskeletal injections in the NHS and private sectors.

Currently, I am leading the MRI unit in St Helier Hospital. I present the radiology aspect in the Rheumatology and Trauma and Orthopaedic meetings. I supervise and teach Junior Specialist Registrars and Radiographers during their reporting sessions.

I am involved in the teaching and research process. I have published a few papers and case reports. Currently I am a sub-investigator in 3 randomised clinical trials with the South West Elective Orthopaedic centre.

Your Senior Ultrasonographer – Ms. Marziah Khodaei

Having always wanted to pursue my calling, I graduated in 2003 from Tehran University in midwifery. Having more than 8 years experiences in the field of midwifery, I enjoyed every aspect of it. I have completed my first postgraduate degree in 2011 in Reproductive science and women’s health from University College of London (UCL). It was an amazing opportunity for me to gain experience in a very high standard IVF unit.

In 2014 I attained my PgD in the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Ultrasound from Cardiff University.

I work in both the NHS and the private sectors and have a strong passion to my work and patient care.

My accomplishments include being appointed as a senior clinical ultrasound specialist at Kingston hospital NHS Trust (Band 8 Sonographer).

I am a member of the Society of Radiographers and hold NT accreditation from the Fetal Medicine Foundation.
