Diagnostic value of musculoskeletal ultrasound in patients with limb pain
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of musculoskeletal ultrasound in patients with limb pain.Methods A total of 80 patients with limb pain admitted to the First Hospital of Nanchang from January 2021 to December 2022 were included in the study.All patients received magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)and musculoskeletal ultrasound on admission.The consistency and coincidence rate of musculoskeletal ultrasound and MRI in diagnosing the cause of limb pain were compared.Results In the 80 patients,MRI and musculoskeletal ultrasound detected positive results in 78 cases,accounting for 97.50%,and 2 cases had no clear disease type.According to the results of MRI,there were 75 cases in which musculoskeletal ultrasound diagnosis of the cause of limb pain was consistent with the MRI results,and total coincidence rate was 96.15%(75/78),with excellent consistency(Kappa=0.907).Conclusion Musculoskeletal ultrasound can clearly display the fine tissue structure,and the diagnosis accuracy of limb pain is high,and the diagnosis consistency with MRI is excellent.
