Ultrasound-guided injections allow the practitioner to visualize the needle in real time as it enters the body and traverses to the desired location. This assures that the medication is accurately injected at the intended site.
Our Ultrasound Service uses sophisticated techniques for high contrast image enhancement for tracking and identifying abnormalities. Ultrasounds are a well established imaging modality. An ultrasound procedure produces images of any part of the body that is a gas-filled structure or is not covered by bone. This is a non-invasive, painless technique which does not emit ionization radiation.
