Abstract
The article presents a review of literature on the value of ultrasonography in acute musculoskeletal injury diagnostics. The main objectives of emergency ultrasonography are outlined: detection of fractures, large hematomas, injuries of tendons, muscles and nerves, detection of foreign bodies of soft tissues, ultrasonic navigation of surgical manipulations and reposition of fractures. The ultrasound method is highly sensitive цand specific in the detection of long-bone fractures, muscles and tendons rupture, which can make an impact on therapeutic tactic and patient’s routing. Ultrasound diagnostics has become useful for pediatric patients due to its ease of use, mobility and non-ionizing qualities. Ultrasonography of acute musculoskeletal injury will probably be increasingly important for orthopedic surgeons and emergency physicians.
