To be a successful ultrasound practitioner, it is imperative to have a sound knowledge of the principles of ultrasound and the equipment (machine and probes) being used. The patient being examined and most importantly their body habitus needs to be considered. In addition, an awareness of general ultrasound scanning principles is necessary. In this chapter, we will go through this briefly. This book’s purpose is to provide a very practical and hands on guide to the use of musculo-skeletal ultrasound in rheumatology, so the descriptions of the physics are not completely exhaustive. |
