Musculoskeletal (MSK) Ultrasound Scans in North London
At Complement – Osteo & Physio, we offer Diagnostic Musculoskeletal (MSK) Ultrasound Scans as part of our integrated approach to assessing and treating pain, injury, and movement dysfunction. This advanced imaging service allows us to see beneath the surface – providing clear, real-time visuals of your muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, and other structures.
What is MSK Ultrasound Scan?
An MSK ultrasound scan is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of soft tissue structures. Unlike X-rays or MRIs, MSK ultrasound is performed in real time, allowing us to observe your body as it moves. It’s safe, quick, and effective – and provides immediate insights to help guide your treatment.
Why choose diagnostic ultrasound in physiotherapy?
Accurate Assessment – Identify muscle tears, tendonitis, bursitis, ligament injuries, joint inflammation, and more.
Real-Time Imaging – Dynamic scans with movement help reveal functional issues that static images might miss.
Immediate Results – No referral needed, no waiting for reports. Our physiotherapist scans and interprets directly.
Targeted Treatment – With precise diagnosis, we tailor your rehab plan to the exact issue with pinpoint accuracy.
Conditions we assess:
Shoulder pain (e.g., rotator cuff injuries)
Elbow pain (e.g., tennis or golfer’s elbow)
Hand & wrist pain (e.g., tendon issues, carpal tunnel syndrome)
Hip pain (e.g., lateral hip injuries)
Knee pain (e.g., patellar tendon issues, IT band pain)
Ankle & foot conditions (e.g., ligament sprains, Achilles tendinopathy, plantar fasciitis)
How the US scan fits into your care
At Complement Physio & Osteo, we integrate advanced imaging with expert rehabilitation, ensuring patients receive comprehensive care tailored to their recovery needs.
In our clinic, the ultrasound MSK scans are performed by Wilson Mbutu, a certified sonographer and physiotherapist who works closely with our osteopaths and physiotherapists in the team to ensure you receive comprehensive, informed care every step of the way. Unlike imaging centers that simply provide a report, we integrate ultrasound directly into your treatment journey.
