4 Is MSKUS Evidence Based? Retrospective study of 1,012 patients treated by MSK and sports physicians over a 10- month period by Sivan et al. concluded that the use of clinic-based MSK US enables a one- stop approach, reduces repeated hospital appointments and improves quality of care.

5 Improved Outcomes RCT by Sibbitt et al. in 148 painful joints were randomized. RCT by Sibbitt et al. in 148 painful joints were randomized. US guided had 43% reduction (p<0.001) in procedural pain. US guided had 43% reduction (p<0.001) in procedural pain. 58% reduction (p<0.001) in absolute pain scores at the 2 wks outcome. 58% reduction (p<0.001) in absolute pain scores at the 2 wks outcome. 75% reduction (p<0.001) in significant pain and 62% reduction in non-responder rate. 75% reduction (p<0.001) in significant pain and 62% reduction in non-responder rate. Increased detection of effusion by 200% and volume of aspirated fluid by 337%. Increased detection of effusion by 200% and volume of aspirated fluid by 337%.

6 MSKUS vs. MRI In a prospective study of 124 patients, US and MRI had comparable accuracy for identifying and measuring the size of full-thickness and partial-thickness rotator cuff tears, with arthroscopic findings used as the standard.
