Hyaluronic acid is a medication which mimics the joint's natural lubricant. Evidence shows it can be effective in reducing pain and inflammation in arthritis. Patients who wish to avoid steroid injections can consider Hyaluronic acid injections.

With the aid of our MSK imaging specialists, we can ensure accurate injection site localisation, and guide the needle placement to an extremely high degree of accuracy. This helps generate improved patient outcomes, with even distribution of hyaluronic acid, and that the affected area is adequately covered. The other advantage of real time MSK imaging is real time feedback, allowing for adjustments and improving precision overall.

This is the most frequent and successful treatment for patients with calcific tendonitis.
Hyaluronic Acid Injection
This substance mimics the joints’ natural lubricant, and has been shown to be highly effective in reducing pain and inflammation.
Cryoablation for Morton’s Neuroma
This is a highly effective treatment, especially if performed with an Ultrasound.
Steroid injections
When performing a steroid injection, we use real-time imaging to visualise the affected area and guide the needle to the precise location, minimising risk.
Arthrograms
This involves using an arthroscope to visualise and diagnose joint problems by viewing the joint’s interior, and this can also be used to perform various treatments.
