Musculoskeletal Ultrasound at New York Medical & Diagnostic Center, Inc.
Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a state-of-the-art imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and soft tissues in real time. At New York Medical & Diagnostic Center, Inc., we provide comprehensive musculoskeletal ultrasound services, ensuring that our patients receive accurate diagnoses and effective treatment plans.
Benefits of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound
Non-Invasive and Painless: This imaging technique does not use radiation and is completely non-invasive, making it a safe and comfortable option for patients of all ages.
Real-Time Imaging: Unlike other imaging modalities, musculoskeletal ultrasound allows for dynamic assessment. This is particularly useful in evaluating joint movements, tendon gliding, and muscle contractions.
Detailed and Precise: High-resolution imaging ensures that even subtle abnormalities can be detected.
Convenient and Efficient: Ultrasound scans are quick and can often be performed during the same visit, leading to faster diagnoses and treatment plans.
What Can Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Detect?

Tendon tears and tendinitis (e.g., rotator cuff, Achilles tendon)
Ligament sprains or tears
Muscle strains, tears, and hernias
Joint effusions and inflammation (e.g., arthritis, bursitis)
Nerve entrapments (e.g., carpal tunnel syndrome)
Soft tissue masses (e.g., cysts, lipomas)
Foreign bodies embedded in soft tissues
