Diagnostic Ultrasound at PYONG Rehabilitation

 

What is Diagnostic Ultrasound?

Diagnostic Ultrasound is a medical technology that uses sound waves to create real-time images of internal organs and tissues, such as muscles, tendons, joints, and other internal structures, without the use of radiation. This method is therefore safe and suitable for all patient groups.

How Diagnostic Ultrasound Works

Sound waves are transmitted into the body and echo back when they hit various tissues. The computer system then converts this data into real-time images, allowing the physician to evaluate the condition immediately.

When is Diagnostic Ultrasound Used?

Diagnostic Ultrasound can be used in many cases depending on the patient’s symptoms, such as specific localized injuries like chronic pain in the knee, shoulder, or wrist joints, inflammation of tendons and muscles, or sports injuries. This type of examination allows the physician to clearly visualize the internal structures, leading to appropriate diagnosis and treatment.

Application at PYONG Rehabilitation Clinic

At PYONG Rehabilitation Clinic, we use Diagnostic Ultrasound in conjunction with treatments such as PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and Prolotherapy to increase treatment accuracy and effectiveness.

The physician can precisely identify the target point for the therapeutic injection, reducing the risk of misplaced injections and effectively accelerating the recovery of tissues and joints, thereby enhancing treatment precision.

 

 

The Difference Between Diagnostic and Therapeutic Ultrasound

 

        Benefits of Diagnostic Ultrasound

• Diagnostic Accuracy: Leads to more effective evaluation and treatment planning.
• Safe and Painless: Non-invasive (no piercing or surgery), making it safe with no associated risks.
• Real-time Results: Physicians can view the results immediately, which expedites treatment and provides patients with initial advice about the cause of their symptoms without waiting for further tests.
• Aids Treatment Planning: Supports the decision-making process for selecting the appropriate course of action.
• Enhances Injection Accuracy: Accurately guides the injection of medications or substances into specific locations in muscles, tendons, joints, and nerves.

   

  The Examination Process and What to Expect

• Preparation Before Examination: Generally, there are no special prohibitions. Patients can undergo the examination immediately, but should wear clothing that allows easy access to the skin area being examined.
• Examination Steps by a Specialist Physician: The physician will apply a special gel to the area to be examined to improve sound wave transmission, place the probe on the skin, and evaluate the results in real-time.
