Musculoskeletal Radiology

Musculoskeletal radiology is a subspecialty of radiology that focuses on imaging of the bones, joints, muscles, and soft tissues of the body. Through the use of imaging techniques such as X-ray, CT scan, MRI, and ultrasound, musculoskeletal radiologists can identify and diagnose a wide range of conditions and diseases. Musculoskeletal radiology is an important tool in the diagnosis, treatment and management of musculoskeletal conditions, including fractures, dislocations, arthritis, osteoporosis, and degenerative joint diseases. Additionally, musculoskeletal radiologists provide guidance to surgeons performing minimally invasive procedures, including image-guided injections and biopsies.
