Musculoskeletal sonography by rheumatologists: the challenges
1 Departments of Rheumatology and
2 Radiology, Addenbrooke's Hospital, Hills Road, Cambridge CB2 2QQ, UK
Musculoskeletal sonography is a tool that provides exciting opportunities to improve diagnostic capabilities and the quality of therapeutic interventions in many rheumatological conditions. The ever-increasing quality of resolution and the availability of dedicated, more affordable machines have made the use of ultrasound an increasingly attractive and feasible option for the rheumatologist [1–4]. The enthusiasm of rheumatologists for the technique is now well documented [1–4] and has been illustrated recently by a full attendance at the first British Society of Rheumatology course in musculoskeletal ultrasound, held over 1½ days in Cambridge, UK in November 2000.
