Knee Ultrasound in Medellín

Clarity That Strengthens Your Steps, Caring for Your Knees

What is a knee ultrasound?

A knee ultrasound is a diagnostic imaging test that uses ultrasound to evaluate the internal structures of the knee, including ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and joint fluid.

Benefits of a Knee Ultrasound

Accurate diagnosis: Ultrasound allows for visualization of internal knee structures, such as ligaments, tendons, and cartilage, making it easier to identify injuries, inflammations, or pathological conditions.
Non-invasive and safe: This procedure is completely non-invasive and does not use radiation, making it a safe option for patients of all ages.
Quick results: Knee ultrasound typically provides immediate results, allowing doctors to make prompt decisions about appropriate treatment.
Dynamic evaluation: Unlike other imaging techniques, ultrasound allows observation of the knee's movement in real-time, helping assess joint function and detect issues that may not be evident in static images.
Accessibility: Knee ultrasounds are available at Centrolab, making them easy to perform and follow up on. With flexible hours, you can schedule your appointment conveniently.
