What is Musculoskeletal Ultrasound?

This is a relatively new diagnostic tool in canine soft tissue injury. The development of highresolution equipment has resulted in better image quality and gives the imager a tremendous range of applications for accurate diagnosis and monitoring of a multitude of musculoskeletal conditions

What are the commonly scanned areas?

- Shoulder - Iliopsoas Muscle/Tendon - Stifle - Tarsus - Carpus

What cases can I use MSK Ultrasound for?

There area a wealth of canine patients that would benefit from diagnostic ultrasound ranging from household pets right through to high level agility and sporting dogs, and in both acute and chronic injuries.

What to expect if you refer a case for Diagnostic MSK Ultrasound?

All patients will be assessed by a member of our orthopaedic team prior to admission for diagnostic ultrasound. This allows for accurate lesion location and ensures ultrasound is the most appropriate course of action for that patient. Patients are hospitalised for the day with the requirement for sedation and/or general anaesthesia depending on the case.
