Diagnostic Ultrasound
Here at reCentre Health, we offer patients a comprehensive musculoskeletal assessment with a diagnostic ultrasound scan. The session will be carried out by our experienced specialist, Chris Pruvey.
He will leverage diagnostic ultrasound scanning â which uses real-time imaging â to assess inflammation, tears, degeneration, and other soft tissue injuries. Unlike static imaging such as X-rays, ultrasound allows us to evaluate tissues during movement, providing a clearer understanding of the true source of your pain.
Conditions that can be assessed include:
- Tendon and ligament tears
- Joint capsule injuries
- Inflammatory conditions
- Degenerative changes in muscles, tendons, and joints
Ultrasound-Guided Injections
Ultrasound-guided injections deliver targeted treatment to the precise location of pain or injury, improving accuracy and effectiveness.
Conditions that can be assessed include:
- Steroid injections: Reduce inflammation in joints and soft tissues
- Hyaluronic acid injections (Ostenil, Ostenil Plus, and Durolane): Support joint lubrication and function
- Prolotherapy: Stimulate tissue repair and regeneration

These treatments can help with:
- Chronic joint pain

Arthrosamid for Knee Osteoarthritis
Knee osteoarthritis is a chronic condition in which the protective cartilage in the knee gradually breaks down and bones begin to make contact with each other which leads to stiffness, swelling and ongoing pain. Symptoms typically progress over time and can significantly limit day-to-day movement.
Knee osteoarthritis can be painful and debilitating â but our expert ultrasound-guided injections specialist can provide you with effective, long-lasting treatment options like ArthrosamidÂŽ to help you regain confidence in your movement.
