Ultrasound of the joints at the Eskulap Clinic in London.

Overworked, aching tendons and joints – it’s time to get tested.

Using ultrasound, we can also perform joint examinations. This is a well-known and well-liked study because it has many advantages. It is completely safe, perfectly reflects the anatomy and deviations from the norm – all pathologies indicating a disease state and, above all, it is a dynamic examination – the doctor conducting the examination assesses the joint during its movement.

The specialized apparatus used in our clinic with the latest technology, a high-resolution linear probe dedicated to the joints, perfectly reflects the subtle details of the tissues forming a given joint. Large joints, such as the knee, shoulder, hip or elbow joints, as well as small joints, such as the interphalangeal joints, wrists, metatarsals and ankles can be imaged.

Ultrasound examination of joints and tendons in London is performed by a radiologist.

The presence of exudate (fluid) in the joint, swelling of the synovial membrane, bone contours and cartilage structures with articular cartilage, as well as the attachments and tendons of the surrounding muscles are assessed with great sensitivity.

    Indications for ultrasound examination of joints.

    Achilles tendon rupture, carpal tunnel syndrome, suspected Baker (Backer) cysts are other indications for ultrasound of the locomotor system in specific pain conditions.

    Among the indications for the examination are not only pain (acute, after an injury, but also chronic) of the joint, but also: a feeling of stiffness, jumping, friction in the joint, its swelling or redness of the surrounding skin, as well as the suspicion of degenerative or inflammatory changes. Break in the continuity of the bone structure (e.g. in a fracture) can also be visualized during ultrasound examination.

    Preparation before ultrasound of the joints.

    Ultrasound examination of the joints does not require any preparation. After the examination, a specialist radiologist analyzes the images obtained and draws up a description of the results obtained. The patient receives it along with the essential prints on paper (or on a different medium). You can return to everyday life immediately after the examination.
