Why USG Both Hands is Required
Doctors recommend USG Both Hands in several clinical situations. It is a valuable diagnostic tool in orthopedics, rheumatology, and sports medicine. Common reasons to undergo a USG Both Hands test include:
-
Persistent pain or numbness in both hands
-
Swelling, deformities, or visible lumps
-
Suspected tenosynovitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or rheumatoid arthritis
-
Injury from repetitive motion or trauma
-
Monitoring the healing process after surgery or treatment
A USG Both Hands scan offers real-time dynamic imaging, which means it shows the structures while moving, helping doctors diagnose motion-related or compression issues effectively.
Because it provides immediate visualization without any radiation exposure, it’s often preferred over MRI or CT in routine and follow-up evaluations.
Benefits of USG Both Hands
There are multiple advantages of undergoing USG Both Hands, including diagnostic precision and patient safety. Some key benefits include:
-
Accurate detection of joint inflammation, nerve compression, or soft tissue injury
-
Non-invasive, radiation-free, and painless procedure
-
Quick results, usually within the same appointment
-
Dynamic assessment of tendons, joints, and ligaments during motion
-
Useful for guiding injections or aspirations in rheumatoid or orthopedic cases
-
Lower cost compared to MRI or CT scans
Since the USG Both Hands test provides clear visualization of the internal structures, it helps the physician plan effective treatment, rehabilitation, or physiotherapy.
How the USG Both Hands Test is Done
The USG Both Hands procedure is simple, comfortable, and completed in about 15–20 minutes. No special preparation is needed.
During the scan:
-
You will be seated with your hands placed on a flat surface.
-
A water-based gel is applied to enhance sound wave transmission.
-
The ultrasound probe is moved gently over both hands to capture real-time images.
-
A radiologist monitors the visuals and records any abnormalities.
After the test, you can continue your normal routine immediately. The results and report are typically available within a few hours.
