Musculoskeletal System Check-up

Evaluating Arthritis,
Ligament Tears and More

Musculoskeletal Imaging
(MRI / CT / Ultrasound)

Prime Radiology uses the latest 128-channel, 443-slice CT, MRI and high-resolution ultrasound to diagnose a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions precisely. MRI analyzes arthritis, ligament tears, cartilage damage, muscle injuries and tendon injuries (such as rotator cuff tears and Achilles tendon ruptures) in high resolution, while 128-channel, 443-slice CT is effective for evaluating structural problems of the bones and joints in greater detail, including fractures, joint deformities, bone tumors and degenerative arthritis.

Precise diagnosis and fast results —
trusted musculoskeletal imaging for your health and peace of mind.

Musculoskeletal MRI image Musculoskeletal MRI

Musculoskeletal MRI
(Magnetic Resonance Imaging)

  • The most precise test for evaluating damage to ligaments, muscles, tendons, cartilage and nerves.
  • Shows soft tissue clearly, making it effective for diagnosing ligament and tendon injuries, fractures and inflammatory conditions.
Recommended for
  • Assessing
    ligament or
    tendon injuries
  • Joint pain of
    unknown cause
  • Suspected
    microfracture or
    osteonecrosis
  • Assessing a tumor
    or soft tissue
    mass
Musculoskeletal CT image Musculoskeletal CT

Musculoskeletal CT (Computed Tomography)

  • Allows detailed 3D analysis of joints and bones to evaluate fractures, bone tumors and more.
  • Assesses bone more precisely than X-ray and is especially useful for diagnosing subtle or complex fractures.
  • Also used to evaluate joints before and after joint replacement surgery.
Recommended for
  • Subtle or complex
    fractures, more
    precise than X-ray
  • Joint surface
    damage and
    instability
  • Distinguishing
    bone tumors
    from cysts
  • Bone structure
    analysis before
    orthopedic surgery
Musculoskeletal Ultrasound image Musculoskeletal Ultrasound

Musculoskeletal Ultrasound

Shows soft tissues such as muscles, ligaments and tendons in real time, making it useful for diagnosing a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including sprains, tears, inflammation and bursitis.

Recommended for
  • Evaluating muscle,
    tendon or
    ligament injuries
  • Finding the cause
    of pain around
    a joint
  • Checking soft
    tissue lumps
    or masses
  • Evaluating joint
    effusion or
    swelling
