Ultrasound Guided Injections

Ultrasound-guided injections allow the practitioner to visualize the needle in real time as it enters the body and traverses to the desired location

We direct bill extended health insurance plans. No referral needed.

Taking Health and Recovery Seriously with Ultrasound Guided Injections

Our clinic takes your health and recovery very seriously. For this reason, ultrasound-guidance is used with most of the injection procedures we offer to ensure optimal results and aid the provider in seeing and avoiding potential complications in real-time. 

In addition to being able to provide increased precision with injections, using ultrasound also allows us to visualize the fluid dynamics / flow so that we can ensure that the treatment is being evenly distributed and placed exactly where it is needed.

 

How Do Ultrasound Guided Injections Work?

Ultrasound-guided injections are performed in a similar way as traditional injections. To ensure image clarity, an ultrasound gel (or other medium) is applied to the skin. The gel conducts soundwaves between the skin and the ultrasound probe to ensure the reflected sound waves have minimal interference and produce a clear, accurate image. The probe, also known as a transducer or scanner, is then placed near or adjacent to the targeted area (tendon, joint, etc.). Once the correct anatomic landmarks are identified on the monitor, the injection is provided using a hypodermic needle and syringe.

The secretaries and Dr. Atkins are friendly, informative and helpful. I am really grateful for the two appointments I have had this month to help with my left knee pain. It was especially helpful to be able to see in the ultrasound (and on a skeletal model) where the problem is exactly in my knee. I trust the cortisone shot I had today will lessen the pain. Thank you!read more

Matt is very knowledgeable. I have an issue with my elbow and hand and he treated it very thoroughly. It feels better the day after treatment than it has for almost a year. I would rate Matt as the best physio i have ever been to. Highly recommended!! Staff were very kind and pleasant as well.read more

Mary Wong Colebrook is an absolute delight. From the first time I met with her for vestibular therapy, she demonstrated her expertise in the field. She was able to resolve my vertigo in the initial session. As it is a recurring ear crystal issue, she's has told me not to suffer with it and she will make ever effort to squeeze me in as soon as possible. She is a wonderful therapist and person!read more
