Ultrasound guidance for punctures and blockages
A procedure in which a doctor can use ultrasound to accurately control the movement of a needle or catheter by administering a drug or taking material for analysis.
Punctures and blockages under ultrasound control are used in the diagnosis of nodes and cysts, as well as in the treatment of pain syndromes, especially those associated with diseases of the musculoskeletal system.
With the help of ultrasound guidance, both diagnostic and therapeutic manipulations can be performed. For example, when puncturing a cyst or neoplasm using ultrasound, possible errors in taking the material are excluded. In the case of a blockade, the drug falls exactly into the area where anesthesia or inflammation relief is required.
The procedure does not require special preparation. It is recommended that the patient inform the doctor about the medications they are taking, especially if they are drugs that affect blood clotting.
During the procedure, the doctor uses an ultrasound machine to visualize the target area. First, a special gel is applied to the skin, then with the help of an ultrasound sensor, the doctor determines the optimal place for needle insertion. Under visual control, the needle is carefully inserted into the tissue to the desired depth, ensuring accurate drug delivery or sampling of the material for analysis.
The procedure is performed using modern ultrasound machines equipped with high-resolution sensors. This equipment allows doctors to clearly see tissues, vessels and nerve structures.
After the procedure, the patient can return to daily activities. If necessary, the doctor may recommend avoiding physical activity for one to two days.
