In neonates we scanned 603 cases for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and found DDH in 142 cases, 14 cases of effusion and 5 cases
soft tissue pathologies. In groin and thigh we scanned 256 cases and we found the pathologies in 217 of soft tissue, vascular pathologies, hernias, lymph node pathologies, tendonitis, tendon tear. We scanned 4852 cases of knee, out of 4794 showed pathologies B-Raf cancer including fluid in suprapatellar recess, infrapatellar tendon pathologies, bursal pathologies, quadriceps tendon pathologies, PCL (Posterior Crutiate Ligament) pathologies, baker’s cyst, popliteal vessels pathologies, MCL (Medial Collateral Ligament) pathologies, LCL (Lateral Collateral Ligament) pathologies, medial meniscal pathologies, lateral meniscal pathologies, soft tissue pathologies, (2 bilateral), osteomyelitis, osteoarthritis, Dapagliflozin rheumatoid arthritis, tendonitis, and muscle pathologies. In calf we scanned 622 cases out of which 619 had pathologies
including cellulitis, soft tissue pathologies, muscle pathologies, vascular pathologies, osteomyelitis. We also scanned 1290 cases of ankle joint and foot out of which 1252 showed pathologies including tendon tear, tendonitis, tenosynovitis, bural pathologies, ligament pathologies, soft tissue pathologies, foot pathologies, and fascial pathologies in foot. In lumbosacral region (back) we scanned 74 cases out of which we had just 21 pathologies including intervertebral
disc prolapse (posterior), vertebral pathologies, muscular tear, muscular spasm, and muscular sprains. Chest wall was scanned anteriorly and posteriorly in 26 patients out of which 9 had pathologies including soft tissue pathologies, rib pathologies, intercostal muscle pathologies, and costochondral joint pathologies. Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a very useful tool in almost all disorders of musculoskeletal system and shall be a necessary tool of a physicians, specially a family physician, orthopedic surgeon, physiotherapist and rheumatologist. This technique also allows to have a correct guidance for therapeutic procedures. “
“The concept of space–time or a four-dimensional (4D) space, combines space and Urease time to a single abstract “space” with three spatial (length, width and height), and one temporal (time) dimensions. Volume 3D/4D ultrasound is mainly used in obstetric sonology during pregnancy, providing space–time images of the fetus. Its application in adult neurology is limited and not well investigated [1] and [2]. The conventional ultrasound imaging, recently introduced for structural and functional evaluation of muscles and nerves in patients with neuromuscular disorders, is mainly of clinical use [3] and [4]. The aim of the present study was to demonstrate the capabilities of 4D ultrasound calf muscle imaging in 3 patients with genetically verified types of distal myopathy (DM).
