Ultrasound Diagnostics
What is MSK Ultrasound?
Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce detailed images of muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and other soft tissues. Unlike X-rays or CT scans, MSK ultrasound does not use radiation, making it a preferred option for many patients.
Our Clinical Director Physiotherapy sessions at our Twickenham clinic uses state-of-the-art ultrasound equipment, enabling us to provide real-time imaging that allows for dynamic assessments during movement. This makes MSK ultrasound particularly effective in diagnosing conditions like:
- Tendonitis or Tendinopathy
- Ligament Tears
- Muscle Strains
- Joint Inflammation (Arthritis)
- Bursitis
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
- Rotator Cuff Injuries

Benefits of MSK Ultrasound at Precision Health Twickenham
Choosing our Twickenham health clinic for your MSK ultrasound comes with several key benefits:
Accurate, Real-Time Diagnostics
MSK ultrasound allows us to visualise soft tissue injuries and abnormalities in real-time. This enables more precise diagnoses and ensures that any treatment plans are based on accurate, up-to-date information.
Non-Invasive and Pain-Free
With no needles or claustrophobic spaces involved, MSK ultrasound is completely non-invasive and pain-free, offering patients a stress-free diagnostic experience.
Immediate Results
Unlike other imaging methods, MSK ultrasound provides immediate results. Our specialists can review the images with you during your appointment, giving you a clear understanding of your condition without unnecessary delays.
Dynamic Imaging
One of the unique advantages of MSK ultrasound is its ability to assess joints and tissues while they’re in motion. This is particularly useful for individuals with movement-related pain.
