Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Imaging
Musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging is a medical technique that uses sound waves to create images of muscles, joints, tendons, and ligaments in the body. This non-invasive procedure helps doctors diagnose injuries, conditions like arthritis, or other musculoskeletal issues by providing real-time images, which can guide treatment. Unlike X-rays or MRIs, ultrasound is portable, does not involve radiation, and allows for dynamic assessment—meaning doctors can observe how structures move during motion. It’s a valuable tool for both diagnosis and monitoring the effectiveness of treatments.
