Musculoskeletal Ultrasound - Ultrasound First

Levon Nazarian, MD, Radiologist at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital,
explains the unique benefits of using ultrasound for musculoskeletal evaluation. Ultrasound is different from CT or MRI because a patient can move their body while they are being scanned, so the practitioner can see what's going on inside their body when they move a certain way. Dr. Nazarian gives patient examples including a situation where a patient had a hip replacement surgery that did not solve the problem, however, with the use of ultrasound he was able to identify the source of the problem which was instead a hernia.
