What Is An MSK Injury Assessment Scan?

Sonographer examining injured muscle tissue

An MSK (Musculoskeletal) Scan evaluates targeted joint or soft tissue areas, assessing:

  • Muscle tears, hematomas, and focal strains
  • Tendon inflammation (tendinopathy / tendonitis)
  • Ligament tears or chronic laxity
  • Bursitis (fluid-filled sac inflammation)
  • Nerve entrapment and ganglion cysts

Musculoskeletal ultrasound is the preferred initial diagnostic tool for soft tissue sports and workplace injuries. By visualizing tissue fibers in motion, sonographers can grade muscle tear severity, pinpoint exact sites of tendinitis, and check for associated fluid build-up.

Whether you injured a hamstring running, sustained a shoulder/elbow sprain, or suffer from repetitive strain injury (RSI), this assessment provides the definitive answer required for your rehabilitation plan.

An MSK Injury Scan pinpoints exact soft tissue damage, enabling faster recovery and targeted physiotherapy guidance.

FAQ

An MSK scan can target the knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow, wrist, Achilles tendon, calf, thigh, or hamstring depending on your specific pain location.

X-rays display bones, while ultrasound excels at soft tissues (tendons, muscles, ligaments, and bursae). For soft tissue injury, ultrasound provides superior detail without radiation.
