USG – GUIDED PROCEDURE (MSK) is a specialized musculoskeletal ultrasound procedure that uses real-time imaging guidance to perform diagnostic or therapeutic interventions with improved precision and safety.

Using ultrasound visualization, the doctor can accurately guide a needle into the targeted joint, tendon, muscle, bursa, ligament, or soft tissue structure. This helps ensure proper placement during procedures such as fluid aspiration, corticosteroid injections, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, biopsies, or treatment of inflammatory and degenerative musculoskeletal conditions.

Ultrasound guidance improves accuracy, minimizes injury to surrounding tissues, and enhances patient comfort compared to blind procedures. It is commonly used for sports injuries, arthritis, tendonitis, bursitis, joint swelling, cysts, soft tissue lesions, and chronic pain conditions.

The procedure is minimally invasive and performed in real time, allowing continuous monitoring throughout the intervention.

This procedure is performed to:

• Guide joint or soft tissue injections accurately
• Aspirate fluid from joints or cysts
• Assist in musculoskeletal biopsies
• Treat tendonitis, bursitis, or arthritis-related conditions
• Improve precision during therapeutic procedures
• Reduce complications and injury to nearby structures
• Support diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders
