Andrew Cordle MD, PhD, Abstract Co-Author: Nothing to Disclose

The exhibit purpose is: 1. To review indications for ultrasound-guided musculoskeletal injections in the upper and lower extremities for neurovascular and tendinous structures, with examples of relevant pathology. 2. To illustrate interventional methods for injection of structures including, but not limited to, the radial tunnel and tarsal tunnel as well as the flexor / extensor tendon sheaths of the extremities, with MR correlation. 3. To discuss role of ultrasound-guided intervention in the postoperative joint. 3. To summarize current radiologic literature regarding efficacy, including outcomes and complications.
