EP40. Explaining Regenerative Medicine (Prolotherapy, PRP, Bone Marrow, & Adipose Derived Stem Cells), and the use of Ultrasound The Sonography Lounge

This is a MUST LISTEN episode of The Sonography Lounge, hosted by Lori Green and Trisha Reo where we dive into a high-level discussion on various regenerative medicine options, and unveil the pivotal role ultrasound plays in musculoskeletal (MSK) injury diagnosis and treatment. This episode is for both healthcare providers and patients interested in Regenerative medicine treatment options. We discuss Prolotherapy, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), Adipose Derived Stem Cells, and Bone Marrow concentrate. This episode focuses mostly on Prolotherapy and PRP. Due to Time constraints, we will be doing follow up episodes on Adipose Derived Stem Cells (aka Lipoaspirate), and Bone Marrow Aspirate.
