My recent attendance at the July 2014
Musculoskeletal Ultrasound meeting allows me to evaluate muscle, tendon or
ligament injuries to the extremities. If indicated at a patient's initial
visit, our office can complete an ultrasound evaluation of the soft tissues of
the extremity to make accurate diagnoses of the severity of injury to these
tissues. Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a noninvasive procedure without exposing
the patients to radiation and is less expensive than an MRI. This
relatively new technique to assist a physician's diagnostic accuracy improves
care by directing the physician to provide specific treatments sooner and
afford the patient the opportunity for a quicker recovery.
