Ultrasound-Guided Injections

Ultrasound injections are a nonoperative, outpatient procedure designed to provide relief for patients with various orthopedic injuries and conditions. During an ultrasound-guided injection, the doctor uses an ultrasound machine to see the targeted area, such as a joint, tendon, or muscle.

Conditions Treated by Ultrasound-Guided Injections

Ultrasound-guided injections are used for various purposes in orthopedics, including:

  • Pain Management: Delivering medications directly to a painful area can provide relief and reduce inflammation.
  • Joint Injections: Used to treat conditions like arthritis or joint inflammation.
  • Tendon Injections: For conditions like tendonitis, where medication can be delivered directly to the affected tendon.
  • Muscle Injections: Useful for muscle pain or injuries.
  • Diagnostic purposes: Sometimes used to guide the extraction of fluid for diagnostic analysis.
