Abstract

Accurately diagnosing pectoralis major injuries, particularly in athletes, often presents a challenge for healthcare practitioners. Although pectoralis muscle injuries are relatively uncommon, the diagnosis of a tear may be overlooked without careful screening by a thorough physical examination of both the injured and uninjured sides. While magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has traditionally held the gold standard, musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSKUS) has emerged as a viable alternative. This article delves into the power of MSKUS in evaluating and diagnosing pectoralis major injuries, highlighting its dynamic capabilities, real-time visualization, and cost-effectiveness in comparison to MRI. By equipping healthcare professionals with a thorough understanding of MSKUS's potential, this article aims to empower them to confidently diagnose and manage pectoralis major injuries, ultimately improving patient outcomes and facilitating a faster return to function.

MSK 超声波:医疗实践中评估和诊断胸大肌损伤的有力工具。
准确诊断胸大肌损伤,尤其是运动员的胸大肌损伤,常常给医疗从业人员带来挑战。虽然胸大肌损伤相对来说并不常见,但如果不通过对受伤和未受伤两侧进行彻底的身体检查来仔细筛查,可能会忽略撕裂的诊断。虽然磁共振成像(MRI)一直是金标准,但肌肉骨骼超声(MSKUS)已成为一种可行的替代方法。本文将深入探讨 MSKUS 在评估和诊断胸大肌损伤方面的强大功能,重点介绍其动态功能、实时可视化以及与核磁共振成像相比的成本效益。通过让医疗保健专业人员全面了解 MSKUS 的潜力,本文旨在让他们能够自信地诊断和处理胸大肌损伤,最终改善患者的治疗效果,促进患者更快地恢复功能。
