Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Scans in Bromley – Fast, Accurate Diagnosis You Can Trust

At Bromley Sports Injury Clinic, we provide diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound scans to quickly and accurately assess soft tissue injuries, joint inflammation, and tendon damage — helping you recover faster and more confidently.

Whether you're dealing with tennis elbow, frozen shoulder, rotator cuff tears, Achilles tendinopathy, or managing long-term conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, ultrasound allows us to see what’s going on in real time, so we can take the guesswork out of your treatment.

 

What Conditions Can Ultrasound Diagnose?

Musculoskeletal ultrasound is ideal for diagnosing and monitoring:

• Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis) – visualise tendon thickening or tears

• Golfer’s Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis) – pinpoint inflammation and microtears

• Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis) – assess capsule thickening and synovial fluid

• Rotator Cuff Injuries – detect partial/full tears and bursitis

• Achilles Tendinopathy – identify tendon degeneration or swelling

• Rheumatoid Arthritis – monitor joint lining inflammation and disease progression

 

Why Choose Diagnostic Ultrasound for Pain & Injury?

Unlike MRI or X-ray, ultrasound scans offer real-time dynamic imaging, allowing us to assess how your tendons, ligaments, and joints behave during movement, which cant be observed with other imaging methods. 

​

Benefits of MSK Ultrasound:

• ✅ Immediate results with no waiting lists

• ✅ Non-invasive, radiation-free, and safe

• ✅ Helps target the exact site of pain or injury

• ✅ Enables early detection of subtle pathology

• ✅ Guides precise rehabilitation and treatment

• ✅ Supports ultrasound-guided injections for accuracy

• ✅ Allows progress tracking over time (e.g. in rheumatoid arthritis or tendon healing)

 

Smarter Rehab Starts With Accurate Diagnosis

Too often, patients are given generalised rehab plans or treatments based on guesswork. With diagnostic ultrasound, we can:

• Confirm exactly where the problem is

• Stage the severity of the pathology

• Tailor your rehab exercises to your injury’s healing phase

• Monitor how your condition is responding to treatment

This precision speeds up recovery, prevents further injury, and gives you peace of mind.
