Whether you are struggling with persistent pain, a sports injury, swelling, tendon problems, or joint dysfunction, ultrasound imaging can provide valuable insight into the cause of your symptoms and help guide the most effective treatment plan.
Musculoskeletal (MSK) ultrasound imaging is a safe, non-invasive diagnostic scan used to assess soft tissue injuries and joint conditions in real time.
Unlike MRI or X-ray, ultrasound allows dynamic assessment, meaning structures can be viewed while moving, helping clinicians better understand how tissues behave during movement and loading.
This service is provided by Neil Liffen from East Coast Physio, a highly experienced musculoskeletal clinician with specialist expertise in ultrasound imaging and rehabilitation.
Neil works with a wide range of patients, from everyday injuries to complex sporting and chronic musculoskeletal conditions. His approach combines detailed assessment, evidence-based practice, and clear communication to ensure patients fully understand both their diagnosis and recovery pathway.
