Lohnt sich der Einsatz von Ultraschall, um Tendinopathien zu diagnostizieren und zu behandeln? Um dies entscheiden zu können, ist es sinnvoll, die Stärken und Schwächen der einzelnen Verfahren und neueste Ultraschall-basierte Therapien zu kennen. Erfahren Sie daher mehr über CEUS, SMI, ASE, Speckle Tracking und was mit Nadeln und Ultraschall möglich ist.
