Abstract
Increases in demand for therapeutic ultrasound‐guided musculoskeletal injections have led to longer waiting times for appointments. With the right training, sonographers are well placed to perform these low‐risk procedures. This study evaluated the effect of musculoskeletal injections administered by trained sonographers with respect to patient safety and satisfaction.
