Tests and Screenings
Whether you need a well-woman visit or have troubling symptoms, Dr Thomas is here to help. Through tests and screenings, Dr Thomas can diagnose, treat and manage the full spectrum of gynaecological conditions.
Types of Gynaecological Tests and Screenings
Pelvic Exam
A doctor examines your reproductive organs during a pelvic exam. During your routine physical examination, you may have a pelvic examination. If you experience atypical vaginal discharge or pelvic pain symptoms, your doctor may prescribe a pelvic check.
Pelvic Ultrasound
Ultrasound of the pelvis generates images of the organs and tissues of the pelvis without causing any harm to the patient. A pelvic ultrasound enables fast visualisation of the
Pap Test
A Pap smear is a cervical cancer screening technique, often known as a Pap test. During the exam, your cervix is examined for cells that may be precancerous or cancerous.
Colposcopy
Colposcopy is a technique that involves examining your cervix, vagina, and vulva for illness indications. A colposcope is a specific instrument used by your doctor during colposcopy. The results of your pap test may indicate a need for a colposcopy if the results are abnormal.
Hysteroscopy
A hysteroscope is a thin telescope with a light and camera attached at the end that enables doctors to look inside the uterus during a hysteroscopy procedure. Dr Thomas or a specialist nurse can look within your womb thanks to images delivered to a monitor.
Laparoscopy
The laparoscopic procedure is an alternative to open minimally invasive surgery. Chronic pelvic pain, endometriosis, fibroid tumours, infertility, and ovarian cysts can all be diagnosed or treated with this surgery. Among other things, laparoscopy can diagnose the stage of gynaecological cancer, perform a hysterectomy, remove fibroids, and perform a tubal ligation.
Mammogram
An X-ray image of the breast is called a mammogram. Doctors use mammograms to check for early signs of breast cancer.
Breast Scan
A breast scan is a diagnostic imaging procedure that examines your breasts. It's utilised when mammography doesn't provide enough information to your doctor. In younger women, a breast scan can aid in diagnosing breast cancer. Breasts are frequently denser in younger women than in older women.
Pregnancy Testing
Pregnancy tests look for a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in your urine. Only when you're pregnant does your body produce this hormone.
Cervical Biopsy
A cervical biopsy is a process that involves removing tissue from the cervix to check for abnormal or precancerous diseases, as well as cervical cancer. The cervix is the uterus's bottom, narrowest section. It creates a canal that leads to the vaginal opening.
Endocervical Curettage
When Dr Thomas performs endocervical curettage, she removes tissue from inside your cervix. This tissue is transported to a laboratory for analysis. It is examined for any potential issues, such as cancer.
Endometrial Biopsy
An endometrial biopsy is a procedure that allows your doctor to examine your uterus for issues. A small endometrium tissue sample is examined under a microscope for cancer and other cell abnormalities during an endometrial biopsy.
Hormone Imbalance Testing
Blood tests are often used to measure hormone levels. The testosterone levels, oestrogen, cortisol, and thyroid hormones can all be detected with this test.
