Incredibly Precise and Accurate
Ultrasound imaging is an incredibly precise and accurate way to guide injections into just about any joint in your body. A notable example of this benefit can be found in patients suffering from hip pain. Traditionally, hip joint injections were handled by the radiology department using fluoroscopic X-ray with radiation exposure.
Umpqua Orthopedics performs ultrasound with hip joint injections for an even safer and more accurate result at our clinic. Using ultrasound to guide an aspiration makes the procedure more comfortable for patients. Contact us today
