Dougherty Sports Medicine is pleased to offer in-office ultrasound for the diagnosis of a variety of musculoskeletal conditions.
In-office ultrasound offers a two significant advantages for patients over relying solely on MRI:
1. If an ultrasound is indicated during your appointment, there's no need to make an additional appointment. The ultrasound can be performed immediately.
2. It is covered under msot insurance with no additional copay.
Not all problems can be imaged with ultrasound, so MRI may still be recommended. For patients whose conditions are captured by ultrasound, however, the procedure can save considerable time and money.
Dr. Dougherty serves as an instructor for musculoskeletal ultrasound and teaches diagnostic techniques to physicians from around the world.
