Diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound is used to identify the source of pain, swelling, weakness, or reduced mobility. It is especially helpful for evaluating conditions such as tendon tears, ligament sprains, bursitis, muscle injuries, joint inflammation, nerve entrapments, and fluid collections. The ability to compare the painful side with the unaffected side during the same visit provides valuable clinical insight. In addition to its diagnostic value, ultrasound enhances patient care by allowing faster decision-making and more targeted treatment planning. It often reduces the need for more expensive or time-consuming imaging tests and can be performed conveniently in the clinic setting. This means quicker answers, earlier treatment, and better overall outcomes.
