Do you need an Ultrasound in Toronto?
January 25, 2011Traumatic and non-traumatic causes of soft tissue pain, masses and other symptoms constitute a large percentage of visits to a physician.
Clinical assessment and X-Rays used to be the only tools available to
the physician for investigation of such symptoms.
Over the past 15 years or so, Musculoskeletal Ultrasound has been used increasingly to manage patients with muscle, tendon and other soft tissue pathology.
Musculoskeletal Ultrasound in our Toronto Medical Clinic is used for ailments, both common and more esoteric alike such as :
o rotator cuff tendinitis and tears,
o heel pain from plantar fasciitis
o Achilles tendon xanthomatosis
o and suprascapular notch cysts,
Musculoskeletal Ultrasound has become an indispensable tool in modern medicine today and at the Toronto Centre for Medical Imaging (TCFMI) clinic, we have more than 15 years experience in Musculoskeletal (MSK) Imaging. Most of the Sports Medicine physicians in the downtown Toronto core refer their MSK cases to TCFMI. Family physicians in the area also access our expertise.
Before you go to an X-ray clinic in Toronto, consider your other options.
