Dr Steven Sampson was featured in a new iPhone application to teach Doctors across the world how to begin using ultrasound to enhance their practice. Ultrasound is used commonly in Europe, but suprisingly is only now seeing increased use. Ultrasound provides remarkable images of tendons and ligaments and soft tissue in some cases superior to MRI. Also Ultrasound is extremely cost effective compared to other imaging like MRI. Thus by utilizing state of the art technology our health care system could save millions of dollars. “Pioneer patients” are driving awareness to doctors who will have to meet the demand for more cutting edge treatents & imaging to help them recover and heal.
