AB Utrasonography is emerging as a core method to evaluate musculoskeletal problems. It is best used for imaging superficial structures limited to 1 quadrant of a joint. It has several advantages over other imaging methods: lower cost, ability to perform dynamic examinations, higher spatial resolution of superficial structures, better patient comfort, and essentially no contraindications.
