Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Imaging North New Hyde Park

Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Imaging

To discover the root cause of your problem, we sometimes need a clearer picture of the deeper injury. This is where ultrasound imaging can greatly help in diagnosing underlying injuries in muscles and soft tissue. This helps our physical therapists get to the root cause of your injury faster and improve your treatment plan for a faster recovery. The Agewell Physical Therapy team of experts will perform musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging when needed to find the source of your injury.

What is musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging?

Musculoskeletal Ultrasound imaging is an advanced non-invasive technology used by your physical therapist to assist in assessing your condition more effectively and guide your therapist to design the most appropriate treatment plan for you.

What is Point-of-Care ultrasound?

Point-of-care ultrasound examinations are performed using portable ultrasound machines wherever the patient may be, whether in a medical environment or at the scene of the injury. Point-of-care ultrasound is ideal for many in-office exams.

How long will the ultrasound exam last?

As a rule, musculoskeletal ultrasound exams are quick. Most exams take just minutes.

Is it safe?

Yes, absolutely. Clinical ultrasound is harmless and uses no radiation.

Our Patients Get Great Results

Having both hips replaced stopped the pain, but you all gave me my life back! Thank you for your patience and encouragement which helped me regain my strength and stamina so that I’m now able to once again engage in activities I love, like gardening and dancing. I would highly recommend AgeWell to anyone in need of physical therapy and I would certainly come back if I’m ever in need of PT again.

I’ve been to other PT offices and this is by far the best. Friendly, professional, effective!

– Herman G.

– Naomi

As my time comes to a close, I’m pleased to share my 3-month experience at this facility! I participated in P/T flowing a total hip replacement at the end of June. Unable to drive myself, it was to my surprise & delight that Agewell provided me with door-to-door pick up to and from each session. The 2 gents that drove me, Raphael & Barry were prompt, courteous, and always willing to listen to me babble en route! The 2 co-founders, John & Mark are bookends and always greet their clients by name. The entire staff works collaboratively, like a family, and this permeates throughout the environment.

– Joyce Anne M.

Simply the best therapy around!

How does it work?

Using high-frequency sound waves (similar to sonar on a submarine), clinical ultrasound systems are comprised of a small probe attached to a computer device with a viewing screen.

The probe scans the area of the body by pulsing high-frequency sound waves. These sound waves reflect back to the probe and are relayed to the ultrasound system where they get converted to an image.

Areas that can be imaged include:

  • Shoulder
  • Elbow
  • Wrist & Hand
  • Hip
  • Knee
  • Ankle & Foot
  • Parts of the Spine
