Musculoskeletal (MSK) Ultrasound

MSK (Musculoskeletal) ultrasound is performed using high-resolution ultrasound imaging on the Mindray Nuewa i9 system, enabling detailed evaluation of muscles, tendons, ligaments and joints in a non-invasive manner.

• Joint pain or swelling

• Muscle injury or strain

• Tendonitis or tendon tears

• Ligament injury

• Sports-related injuries

• Soft tissue swelling or lump

• Follow-up of known musculoskeletal conditions
