Diagnostic Ultrasound
Available at our O’Fallen location.
Back Pain Center, in partnership with Gateway Radiology Consultants, is excited to provide onsite Musculoskeletal Diagnostic Ultrasound. Diagnostic Ultrasound is a radiation-free imaging technique used to visualize structures including bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments and nerves.
As opposed to other imaging techniques such as x-ray and standard MRI, diagnostic ultrasound allows structures to be visualized under active movement, and provides immediate onsite results.
Radiation-free
Diagnostic ultrasound is an effective tool used to diagnose soft tissue injuries in muscles and ligaments that cannot be seen on x-rays, and because it does not utilize radiation, it is safer.
Cost-effective and Functional
Diagnostic Ultrasound provides an affordable alternative to MR imaging. Unlike x-ray and MRI, ultrasound can visualize moving structures, allowing assessment of structures in painful positions. Motion analysis allows real time diagnosis of a variety of athletic and non-athletic injuries.
Onsite Services
Onsite imaging services provide immediate diagnosis. Immediate results allow faster and more accurate treatment.
