Abstract
The use of ultrasound by emergency physicians is now well established. It can be integrated as an extension of the clinical examination, providing diagnostic support during consultation in the emergency department. However, its use in osteoarticular pathologies remains less frequent, despite a growing body of literature demonstrating its value in a variety of pathologies. Ultrasound is operator-dependent, so its proper use requires dedicated training. In Switzerland, training opportunities in osteoarticular ultrasound are still poorly known and not widely used by emergency physicians. This article describes the possibilities of use in the case of osteoarticular pathologies frequently encountered in emergency departments.
