Point of Care Ultrasound

Excitement is growing around the use of point of care ultrasound (POCUS) in orthopedic settings, particularly for diagnosing rotator cuff injuries. While its application is still evolving, it shows promise in identifying tears, though it struggles with assessing cartilage thickness and bone issues. As more practices adopt this technology, its role in diagnosing conditions like glenohumeral joint arthritis may become more prominent.
