What is an Upper Back Ultrasound?

Upper Back Ultrasound is a painless radiology exam that is performed to help diagnose pain and evaluate the upper back in a non-invasive manner. A complete ultrasound examination consists of real-time scans of a specific joint that includes examination of the muscles, tendons, joint, other soft tissue structures, and any identifiable abnormality.

Who should get this test?

Upper Back Ultrasound is usually ordered by doctors if you have these indications:
  • muscle tears, masses or fluid collections
  • ligament sprains or tears
  • inflammation or fluid (effusions) within the bursae and joints
  • early changes of rheumatoid arthritis
  • nerve entrapments such as carpal tunnel syndrome
  • benign and malignant soft tissue tumors
  • ganglion cysts
  • hernias
  • foreign bodies in the soft tissues (such as splinters or glass)

Is there radiation involved?

No. Unlike X-ray imaging, there is no ionizing radiation exposure associated with ultrasound imaging.
