Abstract
Musculoskeletal ultrasound has grown substantially in use over the past several years as an indispensable companion to magnetic resonance imaging and other imaging modalities. This article reviews 10 integral applications of musculoskeletal ultrasound as a problem-solving tool with correlative case examples. These applications include the following: (1) accessibility and portability, (2) targeted imaging, (3) dynamic imaging, (4) contralateral comparison, (5) Doppler imaging, (6) increased spatial resolution, (7) solid versus cystic comparison, (8) posttraumatic imaging, (9) postsurgical imaging, and (10) treatment delivery and optimization. The review will help the radiologist recognize the complementary uses of musculoskeletal ultrasound with radiography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging.
