Digital radiography represents a revolutionary advancement in medical imaging technology. While traditional X-Rays rely on photographic film to capture images, digital ones utilize sensors that convert images into data.
Therefore, the state of your bones and dense structures can be instantly viewed and analyzed on a computer screen.
X-rays are essential tools in orthopedic care for evaluating bone fractures, joint dislocations, and other musculoskeletal injuries and degenerative changes. They are often necessary to assess the extent of damage, determine the appropriate course of treatment, and monitor a patient’s healing progress.

Ultrasounds
Ultrasound imaging, also known as sonography, is a medical technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create real-time images of the internal structures of the body. Its live imaging allows for dynamic evaluation of structures during movement or functional tasks, such as leg lifts or arm raising.
In the realm of orthopaedic care and physical therapy, ultrasound is valuable for assessing soft tissue injuries, tendon integrity, muscle tears, and joint inflammation. It also helps find the best site to inject pain-relieving medications and growth factors to enhance results.
Ultrasound scans range from 20 to 60 minutes, determined by the area being examined and the complexity of the study.
