What Is MSK Ultrasound?
Musculoskeletal (MSK) ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses sound waves to produce detailed images of muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, and joints throughout the body. It allows for real-time visualization of soft tissues, helping clinicians assess injuries, inflammation, and other conditions. This dynamic imaging can also evaluate movement and blood flow, providing insights not always visible with other diagnostic methods.
Your MSK Ultrasound Visit
Consultation & Referral
Your journey begins with a thorough assessment by our team at Orlando Spine Studio to understand your symptoms and medical history. If an MSK ultrasound is deemed appropriate for your diagnostic needs, we will facilitate a referral to a trusted local imaging partner. Our goal is to ensure you receive the most suitable diagnostic care.
Imaging Procedure
During the ultrasound, a small transducer device will be placed on your skin over the area of concern, using a water-based gel. This device emits sound waves that bounce off internal structures, creating images on a monitor. The procedure is typically painless and takes about 15-30 minutes, depending on the area being examined.
Real-Time Assessment
During the procedure, the specialist will often ask you to move the affected joint or limb. This allows for real-time observation of how muscles, tendons, and ligaments function under stress or during movement. This dynamic assessment helps in identifying issues like impingement or instability that might not be visible in a static image.
Results & Follow-Up
After the ultrasound, the specialist will analyze the images and prepare a detailed report. These findings are then communicated back to our team at Orlando Spine Studio. We will discuss the results with you and integrate them into your personalized treatment and recovery plan.
