Musculoskeletal Radiology
Expertise in musculoskeletal imaging and interventions, from joint ultrasounds to innovative treatments like PRP and stem cell injections. Trust our specialists to enhance your musculoskeletal health with precision and care.
Understanding Musculoskeletal Radiology
Imaging experts focused on diagnosing injuries, diseases and conditions affecting the musculoskeletal system, collaborating closely with orthopedics doctors. They interpret Xrays, ultrasound, CT and MRI imaging of muscles, joints and bones and play a pivotal role in diagnostics. Our musculoskeletal radiologists are fellowship trained at the premier institutes across the nation and are proficient in the latest imaging techniques to ensure appropriate diagnosis.
Specialized Examinations
Specialized Ultrasound of Joints
Our joint ultrasound service is a non-invasive diagnostic tool that helps visualize the structure of joints in real time. This imaging technique is crucial for assessing various joint disorders, including arthritis, bursitis, and tendonitis. It provides a clear picture of joint linings, cartilage, and fluid accumulation, assisting in precise diagnosis and treatment planning.
MRI Arthrography of Joints
MRI arthrography is a specialized imaging technique used to provide detailed views of joint structures, such as ligaments, cartilage, and the labrum. This procedure involves injecting a contrast material directly into the joint space before performing the MRI scan. The contrast enhances the visibility of the joint’s internal structures, allowing for precise diagnosis of conditions like tears, cartilage damage, and other abnormalities.
MRI arthrography is particularly useful for evaluating complex joint issues in areas such as the shoulder, hip, and wrist, helping to guide effective treatment plans.
Plasma Rich Protein (PRP) and Stem Cell Injections to Expedite Healing
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Stem Cell injections are advanced treatments for musculoskeletal injuries that promote natural healing and pain relief. PRP therapy involves extracting a patient’s own blood, processing it to enrich the platelets, and then re-injecting it into the affected area. This approach is particularly effective for sports injuries, tendonitis, and arthritis, accelerating the healing process. Stem cell injections, on the other hand, stimulate the body’s repair mechanisms to improve function and reduce pain in conditions such as osteoarthritis or tendon injuries.
Our treatments ensure that both PRP and stem cell therapies are delivered with the highest safety and efficacy standards, guided by meticulous imaging techniques.
Steroid Injections To Alleviate Pain and/or Inflammation
Steroid injections are a common treatment for reducing inflammation and pain within joints and soft tissue. Administered under precise imaging guidance, these injections can provide relief from chronic pain conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, significantly improving quality of life.
