Ultrasound diagnosticsSonography, also known as ultrasound diagnostics, is an established imaging technique for examining the musculoskeletal system. It enables the detailed visualisation of soft tissue structures such as muscles, tendons, ligaments and joints. The use of standardised examination techniques is essential for a precise diagnosis. Compared to other imaging methods, sonography has the advantage of not using radiation and of enabling dynamic examinations in real time. This makes it particularly valuable for assessing diseases and changes in muscles, tendons, soft tissues and joints. Early detection of hip dysplasia in infantsUltrasound of the infant hip is an essential part of the U3 check-up, which is carried out in the 4th to 6th week of life. This examination enables the early detection of hip dysplasia, a malformation of the hip joint that can lead to serious health problems if left untreated. Today, ultrasound monitoring of the infant hip is a must. Limitations of sonographyDespite the numerous advantages, there are also limitations:
