Opening of the article
Sonography is increasingly being used for diagnosing a large number of musculoskeletal disorders. Its multiple advantages incl ude low cost, accessibility, portability and non-invasiveness. But perhaps, it the unique capabilities of real time imaging and dynamic evaluation which give it a distinct edge over other diagnostic modalities. This dynamic capability is particularly useful in musculoskeletal imaging as some disorders of muscle, tendons, joints and nerves are better –or sometimes- only seen dynamically when the affected extremit y is in motion.
