Ultrasound examination of the shoulder
Shoulder ultrasound is cost-effective because it provides a fast, accurate, and non-invasive evaluation of tendons, bursae, muscles, and joints without radiation. It is especially useful for shoulder pain and can detect conditions such as tendinitis, bursitis, rotator cuff injuries, calcifications, and fluid accumulation. The scan can be performed dynamically, while the patient moves the shoulder, allowing for the detection of functional issues that MRI may miss. Additionally, ultrasound delivers immediate findings, is affordable, and can be used to guide precise injections.
