    Knee Ultrasound: Are They Useless?

    📧 Contact us: talkingwithdocs@gmail.com Are Knee Ultrasounds Useless? The Truth About Imaging Knee Pain In this episode, doctors break down the truth about knee ultrasounds — and why they’re often not the best tool for diagnosing knee pain. From sports injuries to arthritis, many patients are surprised when results don’t provide clear answers. So… are knee ultrasounds useless? Not exactly — but they’re not as helpful as many think. We explain how ultrasound works, why it’s rarely relied on for knee issues, and when it actually is the right choice. Plus, we cover which scans are better for spotting meniscus tears, ligament injuries, and arthritis. You’ll learn: Why ultrasounds are limited for knee joints ❌What ultrasounds can and can’t show 🔎When knee ultrasounds are appropriate 🩺Differences between ultrasound, MRI, and X-ray ⚖️Why some patients are still prescribed ultrasounds 📋How ultrasound creates images in real time 📡If you’ve been told to get an ultrasound for knee pain — or you’re wondering what scan is best — this episode will help you understand what’s truly useful in modern knee diagnostics. 🎧 Listen on Your Favourite Platforms: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3OFxEjictC41CCS1z2AVKe Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/talking-with-docs/id1799242189 YouTube Music: • TWD Podcast 👕 Shop Our MERCH: https://www.spreadshirt.ca/shop/user/talking+with+docs/ ❤️ Support Oakville Hospital: https://donate.oakvillehospitalfoundation.com 📱 Follow Us: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@talkingwithdocs Instagram: /talkingwithdocs Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063617375848 Twitter: /talkingwithdocs 🛑 DISCLAIMER: Please see the complete user agreement at talkingwithdocs.com.
