High-Resolution Imaging for Accurate Diagnosis and Personalized Care
MSK Ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive diagnostic tool that uses advanced ultrasound technology to visualize muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, and other soft tissue structures in real time—without exposure to radiation. At DouleurMD, this dynamic and precise imaging technique is used to assess joint pain, movement limitations, and soft tissue injuries when traditional X-rays may not provide enough detail.
Unlike static imaging tests, MSK ultrasound allows the physician to observe structures in motion, helping to identify subtle abnormalities and pinpoint the exact source of pain. It is ideal for diagnosing conditions like tendonitis, ligament sprains, bursitis, muscle tears, and nerve entrapments.
MSK ultrasound can also be combined with guided injections for targeted treatment. With real-time visualization, the physician can precisely direct medication to the affected area, enhancing both safety and treatment outcomes.
Since January 2020, DouleurMD is proud to offer diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound services performed by professionals certified in musculoskeletal sonography (RMSK).
