What is Ultrasound Injection ?

Ultrasound-guided injections allow the practitioner to visualize the needle in real time as it enters the body and traverses to the desired location. This assures that the medication is accurately injected at the intended site.

Why Ultrasound guided injection are Important?

Ultrasound guided injections are well used in medicine as they are a harmless way of imaging deep into the body’s tissues. The image allows us to see very accurately all of the different tissues within the body. Ultrasound also help prevent the patient being exposed to radiation or any harmful side effects

What Are the Benefits of an Ultrasound-Guided Injection?

Common indications of musculoskeletal injections.

INTRA-ARTICULAR

  • Acute inflammatory mono/poly arthritis
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Adhesive capsulitis
  • Impingement syndromes

TENDONS AND TENDON SHEATHS

  • Acute tendonitis
  • Chronic calcific/non-calcific tendinopathies
  • Persistent tendinopathy
  • Tenosynovitis

BURSA AND GANGLION

  • Acute/Chronic bursitis
  • Peri-articular/Peri-meniscal/Peri-labral ganglion cyst

PERINEURAL

  • Peripheral nerve blocks for acute & chronic pain management
  • Interdigital neuromas
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome

INTRA-MUSCULAR

  • Acute/Subacute low to intermediate grade muscle injuries without tendon avulsion
  • Chronic injuries with focal area of pain
  • Intra-muscular hematoma

There are several benefits of ultrasound-guided medication injections. These include:

Accuracy

Because our physicians carefully monitor the ultrasound, we can see exactly where we need to administer the medication. This is not only safer and more accurate, but it also means the medication has the best chance of pinpointing the problem area. As a result, it is the best chance to relieve the pain.

Efficiency

Another one of the benefits of an ultrasound guided medication injection is that it takes minimal time. The procedure will be completed much sooner than a standard injection.

Ease of Access

Joints are complex structures. They have to be flexible enough to allow the body to perform all kinds of tasks of everyday living. In some cases, the area that needs the injection may only be millimeters in size. This means that an ultrasound-guided medication injection enables us to access the area easily due to ultrasound imaging.

Minimal Risk

This is a very safe procedure that carries minimal risks. Ultrasound technology has been around for more than two decades, and it has demonstrated a safe track record.

Because we can accurately follow where the needle is located, we reduce the risk of complications.

No Radiation is Involved

An ultrasound utilizes sound waves. These waves bounce off structures and are translated into an image that is projected onto a monitor. This enables our orthopaedic doctors in Raleigh to precisely monitor the needle’s location.
