MSK Injection, Initial Assessment – Two Joints

Ultrasound Guided Musculoskeletal (MSK) Injections are specialised image guided procedures offered to people who suffer from various musculoskeletal conditions including arthritis and sport related injuries.

Specialist Musculoskeletal Clinics

At London Private Ultrasound the injections are done by an experienced, highly skilled radiology consultant – qualified doctor on General Medical Council’s Specialist Register– who has national and international subspecialty fellowships in MSK imaging and is also a lead musculoskeletal radiologist in the NHS. Clinics are held at LPU on Sundays with many other MSK services available throughout the week and evenings. These clinics are recommended to those of you suffering MSK pain to the joints as a result of injury, arthritis, gout and build-up of calcium deposits such as that treated with a shoulder barbotage and other issues affecting the full range of movement of a joint. We provide consultation throughout and can advise on the best actions to relieve pain quickly and safely whatever the cause – please take a look at the list of navigational links by type on the MSK section of the menu.

Joint Pain Treatment

You would be offered a complete consultation and assessment of your condition by the consultant with a diagnostic ultrasound scan to confirm the diagnosis. Where appropriate and following a thorough consent process, an Ultrasound Guided Injection would be performed. This would be done using an aseptic technique with adherence to all infection prevention and control guidelines. The MSK radiologist’s expertise and accuracy in performing the procedure will ensure maximum comfort and efficacy which is especially reassuring for patients with prior unpleasant encounters with injections and fear of needles.

You will then be given the necessary aftercare advice and issued a complete report of your ultrasound findings and procedural details.

How to book your Appointment

These clinics are mostly available on Sundays – other MSK services are however, available throughout the week. Should you find limited or no availability showing on the calendar opposite – we would encourageyou to make use of the direct contact form below the FAQ section.
