Introduction
Musculoskeletal sonography is a rapidly evolving technique that is gaining
popularity for the evaluation and treatment of joint and soft-tissue diseases.
Inherent advantages of sonography include accessibility, quick scan time, low
cost, multiplanar capability, and the ability to perform dynamic real-time
imaging with contralateral comparison. Advances in technology with higher
frequency transducers, power Doppler sonography, and extended field-of-view
function have facilitated the progressive development of sonography
[1,2,3].
One notable drawback of sonography is operator-dependency; the quality and
consistency of sonographic studies rely on the expertise of the examiner.
Other limitations include a long learning curve and a physician time-intensive
examination, particularly for beginners. Musculoskeletal sonography is a
widely accepted and available tool in Europe and other parts of the world, in
which it is often the principal technique performed for many clinical
indications. However, in the United States, sonography is relatively underused
because of the wide availability of MR imaging and the small number of
training programs offering instruction and experience in musculoskeletal
sonography. Additionally, physicians, including radiologists, are often
unaware of the potential applications of sonography for the assessment of
joint and soft-tissue disease. Sonography offers a cost-effective alternative
for imaging musculoskeletal disorders in many situations
[1,2,3].
We discuss basic principles, advanced imaging functions, scan artifacts,
and general characteristics of key musculoskeletal structures. Subsequent
articles will feature abnormalities pertaining to specific joints, and the
final installment will focus on musculoskeletal tumors, sonographically guided
interventions, and miscellaneous topics. Our intent is to review current
accepted clinical applications of musculoskeletal sonography and generate
interest in what we believe to be an underused technique. We hope to inspire
physicians to consider musculoskeletal sonography as a viable, and frequently
primary, option in the assessment of joint and soft-tissue disorders.
General Principles
When performing musculoskeletal sonography, the proper equipment is
essential to facilitate optimal image quality and diagnostic examinations. In
general, the structures examined will be superficial; therefore,
high-frequency (
7-12 MHz) linear array transducers are usually the most
appropriate choice. The high resolution attainable allows detailed anatomic
depiction of pertinent structures
[1]. Proper positioning of the
patient is of paramount importance in obtaining high-quality studies.
Different sonographic techniques have been described, with the universal goal
of optimizing the visualization of structures of interest.
Musculoskeletal Structure Characteristics
In this section, we describe the sonographic characteristics of key
musculoskeletal structures.
The evaluation of tendon abnormality is the most common clinical indication
for musculoskeletal sonography. Whether the tendon is in the shoulder, wrist,
or ankle, the sonographic appearance of a normal tendon is fairly uniform. On
sonography, tendons should have a fibrillar pattern of parallel hyperechoic
lines in the longitudinal plane and a hyperechoic round-to-ovoid shape in the
transverse plane [4] (Fig.
1A,1B,1C).

(arrows) and peroneus brevis muscle (PB). a = anterior, p =

Ligaments have an appearance similar to tendons but are static stabilizers
connecting bone to bone. Ligaments can be differentiated from tendons by
noting their more compact fibrillar, hyperechoic pattern
[1]. Superficial ligaments,
such as the anterior talofibular ligament or elbow ulnar collateral ligament
(Fig. 2), are readily
visualized. Deeper internal ligaments, such as the anterior cruciate ligament,
are more difficult to consistently identify.

normal ulnar collateral ligament (black arrows) of elbow. Note medial

|
|
Normal skeletal muscle shows low- to mid-level echogenicity with
hyperechoic fascial planes [1]
(Fig.
1A,1B,1C).
Partial and complete tears can be characterized on sonography, and the degree
of retraction, if any, can be accurately measured. Dynamic imaging with
contraction of the affected muscle can sometimes better illustrate the
abnormality and provide functional information (Fig.
3A,3B,3C).

|
|
Larger peripheral nerves can also be accurately identified on sonography
[5]. Normal peripheral nerves
typically appear as echogenic fascicular structures and tend to be slightly
less echogenic than tendons or ligaments
[6] (Fig.
4A,4B).
This appearance is somewhat variable depending on the location and orientation
of the nerve but can usually be identified by the nerve distribution.

On sonography, the bone cortex appears as an echogenic surface with
posterior shadowing (Fig.
1A,1B,1C).
Only the superficial surface of the bone can be consistently evaluated on
sonography. Radiographically occult fractures can be detected on sonography,
seen as a "step off" cortical disruption
[1,
7]
(Fig. 5).

A thin hypoechoic rim paralleling the echogenic articular cortical surface
represents hyaline cartilage (Figs.
1A,1B,1C
and 6). Ongoing research on
the potential clinical applications of sonography of fibrocartilage is
promising. Sonography may play a more significant role in the assessment of
labral and meniscal lesions as technology continues to improve
[1]
(7 and
8).

Calcifications typically exhibit increased echogenicity with associated
posterior acoustic shadowing (Fig.
9). However, the presence of shadowing depends on the size of the
calcification [8]. When
calcification is present within the substance of a tendon, it commonly
represents calcific tendonitis (Fig.
10A,10B).

Examination
Although sonography is operator-dependent, the interaction between the
examiner and the patient is invaluable. Additional clinical history about the
precise location and character of symptoms, direct feedback about tenderness
with probe palpation, and positions or movements that elicit or aggravate
symptoms can assist in the accurate interpretation of findings.
The flexibility and dynamic capability of sonography allow a targeted
examination, specific for each individual. Dynamic imaging can readily reveal
certain transient conditions related to specific positions or movements, which
can be absent during static examination
[2] (Fig.
11A,11B,11C).

Compression from applying transducer pressure under real-time visualization
can reveal important information about the composition of underlying
structures and allows increased conspicuity or detection of abnormalities that

Contralateral comparison is easily performed in the musculoskeletal system;
it distinguishes significant findings from normal variants and occasionally
reveals unsuspected abnormalities, which can be crucial to the treatment of a
patient (Figs. 13 and

Technical Features
Color and power Doppler sonography features show the degree of vascularity
associated with inflammatory processes and solid masses. Power Doppler
sonography can be used to characterize musculoskeletal inflammation in
cellulitis, abscess, synovitis, myositis, and bursitis
[9] (Fig.
15A,15B).

The split-screen function that is available on most sonography units can
expand the field of view to approximately double the width or can be used for
side-by-side comparisons (Figs.
13 and
14). The extended
field-of-view function, available on the Sonoline Allegra sonographic unit
(Siemens Medical Systems, Iselin, NJ), can display very large continuous
sections of anatomy, preserving spatial resolution without distorting
structural relationships [10,
11]
(Fig. 16).

arrowheads) is present. p = proximal, d = distal.
|

Recent innovative functions such as three-dimensional imaging
(Fig. 17) and tissue harmonics
(Fig.
18A,18B)
may provide further improvement in the diagnostic effectiveness of sonography.
The role of these functions in the assessment of musculoskeletal disorders is
currently under investigation
[3].
Artifact
Anisotropy is an important artifact that can affect the image and should be
considered when examining any musculoskeletal soft-tissue structure. This
finding is most obvious with tendons and ligaments, caused by the highly
ordered, parallel pattern of collagen fibers that shows the greatest degree of
reflectivity when examined perpendicular to the ultrasound beam. Anisotropy
occurs when the ultrasound beam is not perpendicular to the fibrillar
structure of the tendon, resulting in the absence of specular reflectors and
an artifactual hypoechoic to anechoic appearance
[4] (Figs.
19A,19B
and
20A,20B).
The sonographer should be aware of proper transducer position and may need to
manipulate the heel-toe and fore-aft angulation of the probe to avoid this
artifact [12]. When a tendon
has a curving course, the effects of anisotropy cannot be entirely eliminated.
Each separate portion of the tendon must be examined individually, and the
evaluation of tendon integrity should be primarily determined during real-time
scanning.
