Abstract

Musculoskeletal ultrasound has benefited from the recent exponential improvement in probe technology to the extent that it is now the imaging modality of choice for many peripheral soft tissue injuries. This article aims to highlight these areas and encourage the use of this modalilty in these scenarios rather than the currently more favoured magnetic resonance imaging scan.
