Ultrasonography in Musculoskeletal Injury Management

How Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Works

On-the-Spot Imaging: Immediate visualization of swollen tendons, muscle tears, or ligament strains—all performed in-clinic, often led by Dr. Pooja Jhade’s physiotherapy team.

Guiding Procedures: Injections, dry needling, or aspiration of fluid are performed with millimeter-level accuracy, supervised by specialists like Dr. Nataraj H M, minimizing discomfort and maximizing effectiveness.

Tracking Recovery: Serial scans document before-and-after status, objectively confirming progress and supporting safe return-to-play decisions.

Athlete Advantages

Zero Radiation, Full Portability: Ultrasound allows repeat imaging with no risk, at a fraction of the cost of MRI—perfect for continuous tracking during long-term rehab.

Dynamic Assessment: By asking patients to move while scanning, physiotherapists such as Dr. Pooja Jhade can identify painful snapping, impingement, or unstable structures that static imaging misses.

Prompt Results: No waiting for reports—real-time feedback means rehab programs can be adapted instantly for faster recovery.
