<\/span>It is a diagnostic technique that uses ultrasound to create two-dimensional or three-dimensional images. Therefore, when undergoing an ultrasound examination, the patient simply lies down on a stretcher and the physiotherapist moves the probe or transducer over the skin over the part of the body to be examined. However, before that, a gel must be placed on the skin for the correct transmission of the ultrasound. <\/span><\/p>\n HOW DOES IT WORK?<\/strong><\/p>\n The probe or transducer emits ultrasound waves, these are transmitted towards the area of \u200b\u200bthe body under study, and their echo is received. The probe, therefore, collects the echo of the sound waves and a computer converts this echo into an image that, finally, appears on the screen. <\/span> EFFECTS\/BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH ULTRASOUND<\/strong><\/p>\n It is a very simple imaging technique that allows you to observe and detect problems in muscles, joints, ligaments, tendons, etc., and thus objectively assess the injured tissue.<\/span> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It is a diagnostic technique that uses ultrasound to create two-dimensional or three-dimensional images.

Ultrasound<\/span> ,<\/span> therefore, is a non-invasive test in which mechanical vibrations with an oscillation frequency in the ultrasound range are used, unlike radiography procedures, in which nuclear radiation is used.<\/span><\/p>\n
Consequently<\/span> ,<\/span> this allows us to see the evolution of all types of musculoskeletal injuries and apply appropriate treatment techniques to their chronology.<\/span>
This type of test allows us to assess how the lesion evolves with the treatment applied in successive sessions and is increasingly scientifically supported, which supports its use in the clinical reasoning process. It is a harmless test for patients and is a complement to the clinical history, physical examination or other types of tests, which results in <\/span> <\/span>therefore<\/span> , very useful for the physiotherapist.<\/span><\/p>\n
