Carpal Tunnel Ultrasound

Make an appointment

The cause of carpal tunnel syndrome is median nerve compression in the carpal tunnel.

Its the most common nerve entrapment site in the human body. Predisposed to carpal tunnel syndrome are patients suffering from diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism, hormonal replacement therapy, rhematoid arthritis and corticosteroid use.

Carpal tunnel syndrome has been associated with some certain jobs including:

musician,
clerk,
hair dresser,
painter,
dental hygienist,
professional gardener.

Indications for carpal tunnel ultrasound examination:

neuropathic symptoms of the median nerve,
thumb muscle atrophy,
no improvement after rehabilitation and anti-inflammatory drug treatment.

Preparing for the examination:

There are no special demands.

Achilles Tendon Ultrasound

Make an appointment

The Achilles tendon connects the calf muscles to the calcaneus and plays a very important role in the process of movement.

Its the largest tendon in the human body, prone to sports injuries. The Achilles tendon arises from the gastrcnemius and the soleus muscles creating one band of tissue which becomes the Achilles tendon.

Anatomical structures we assess:

calcaneal tuberosity,
Kager’s fat pad,
Achilles tendon,
Achilles bursae,
posterior ankle joint recess.

Indications for Achilles tendon examination:

sports injury,
Achilles tendon pain,
ankle swelling,
limited ankle joint movement.

Preparing for the examination:

There are no special demands.

Knee Ultrasound

Make an appointment

Knee ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging modality that uses ultrasound waves to assess the knee joint.

With receiving real-time images we have the advantage of looking at knee joint structures both dynamic and static. Knee ultrasound is very safe and we can repeat this examination many times to monitor applied treatment.

Anatomical structures we assess:

joint recesses and bursae,
ligaments,
tendons,
muscles,
menisci,
popliteal fossa,
bone contours,
cartilage.

Indications to knee ultrasound examination:

knee injury,
knee swelling,
knee pain,
knee blocking,
knee instability,
monitoring process of treatment.

Preparing for the examination:

There are no special demands.

Peripheral Nerve Ultrasound

Make an appointment

Peripheral nerve ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging modality that uses ultrasound waves to assess nerve structure.

High frequency probes let us determine the exact site of any nerve entrapment. After receiving real-time images we have the advantage of doing dynamic maneuvers to assess nerve stability.

We assess peripheral nerves of head, trunk, lower and upper exteremity.

Indications for peripheral nerve ultrasound:

neuropathic pain,
pain focusing on the scar,
loss of muscle strength,
pain after an accident.

Preparing for the examination:

There are no special demands.
