Sports Medicine

Ultrasound technology enables British anesthesiologists to efficiently and accurately place regional anesthesia, resulting in cost reductions for the hospital and a better patient experience. BBC News: Ultrasonic ‘nerve block’ replaces anaesthetic.

Sports medicine physicians are discovering the value of ultrasound visualization in assessing injury and function, and improving accuracy in interventional procedures. SonoSite works closely with sports medicine physicians to develop imaging solutions that meet the rapidly- expanding clinical requirements of this specialty.

What Our Customers Have to Say

“Rapid, efficient, and powerful imaging allows orthopedic surgeons to improve patient care and decrease overall health costs.“

—John S. Reach Jr., MD, Director of the Yale Foot and Ankle Service, Assistant Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut

“Hand-carried ultrasound is less expensive, readily available, and provides excellent resolution with no radiation. On the other hand, an MRI can be difficult to schedule, cannot be brought to the point of care, and cannot be used on patients with pacemakers or those who suffer from claustrophobia.“

—Levon Nazarian, MD, Professor of Radiology,
Vice Chairman of Education,
Director of Muscular Ultrasound,
Jefferson Medical College of Thomas Jefferson University,
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
