BACKGROUND In daily rheumatology clinical practice, routine interventional musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) guided maneuvers such as aspiration, intraarticular or periarticular drug injections require efficient cleaning and disinfection methods for both transducer and patient's skin. AIM To study the efficacy of probe and skin disinfection measures after using simple protocols, to identify t...
متن کاملUltrasound-guided injections in the lumbar spine.
Injection therapies play a major role in the treatment of low back pain and radiculopathy and are becoming integral parts of a multidisciplinary approach in treatment and rehabilitation of patients with pain. Pararadicular- and facet-joint injections in the lumbar spine are preferentially performed with computed tomography (CT) or fluoroscopy-guidance. In this paper we present an alternative, s...
متن کاملUse of small amounts of ultrasound guided air for injections.
The existence and detection of air in various tissues is of great importance, whether the air has emanated by a disease mechanism (for example, intra-abdominal in gastric lesions, extrapulmonary in thoracic lesions) or been applied as a diagnostic tool. The detection of the air in a diagnostic test may be performed by such diVerent methods as stethoscopy (epidurally in the whoosh test), or radi...
متن کاملUltrasound-guided injections in the middle and lower cervical spine.
Injection therapies play a major role in the treatment of cervical pain and are becoming integral parts of a multidisciplinary approach in treatment and rehabilitation of such patients. Pararadicular- and facet-joint injections in the cervical spine are preferentially performed under computed tomography (CT) or fluoroscopy-guidance. In this article we present an alternative, simple and easy to ...
