Corresponding author: Levend Karaçoban E-mail: leven dkara coban @gmai l.com Received: December 12, 2022 Accepted: July 28, 2023 Publication Date: September 1, 2023 Musculoskeletal physicians are dealing with various problems in their daily clinical practice. Among the other treatment modalities, joint and soft tissue interventions are commonplace. These injections may be used for several purposes and via different techniques owing to the physicians’ expertise and past education. Herein, it is noteworthy that ultrasound (US) provides a pivotal role as “guidance” throughout the whole management process.1 Although there is still a need for further high(er) level evidence comparisons between US-guided vs. blind injections; in this short paper, we would like to underscore some issues concerning the overall contribution of US in the treatment of different scenarios.
