Image-guided Injection to Treat Joint Pain

When your patients have joint pain, they want relief

Injections are often used in sports medicine to help treat tendon or joint pain, inflammation and impaired mobility, osteoarthritis, labral tears, tendinitis, tenosynovitis and calcific tendinitis.

While it is very safe for injections to be done in certain parts of the body, the Froedtert & MCW health network often uses imaging to guide our injections.

Join Injections Available For:

• Hip
• Shoulder
• Foot
• Ankle
• Knee

Contraindications

Relative contraindications, including joint infections, should be discussed with the radiologist.

Medical College of Wisconsin radiologists are available to consult with you on a patient-by-patient basis to determine if an image guided injection procedure is appropriate.
