Ultrasound Scanning for Paget’s Disease of the Bone

Paget’s disease of bone is a chronic bone disorder. Normally, there is a process in which your bones break down and then regrow. In Paget’s disease, this process is abnormal. There is excessive breakdown and regrowth of bone. Because the bones regrow too quickly, they are bigger and softer than normal.

The cause of Paget’s bone disease is unknown. Scientists suspect a combination of environmental and genetic factors contribute to the disease. Several genes appear to be linked to getting the disease.

This disease commonly affects the following areas :  the pelvis, spine and skull. Symptoms can include: constant, dull bone pain. joint pain, stiffness and swelling. a shooting pain that travels along or across the body, numbness and tingling, or loss of movement in part of the body.

The first indication of Paget’s disease of bone is often abnormalities found on X-rays bone scans done for other reasons. X-ray images of your bones can show areas of bone breakdown, enlargement of the bone and deformities that are characteristic of the disease, such as bowing of your long bones.

To perfectly execute this bone scan, a professional and highly accurate scanning machine should be employed. The ultimate aim is to attain the correct diagnosis and subsequent proper treatment.

Be it specialists’ top suggestion in the bone ultrasonography field, the Color Doppler 3 in 1 Wireless Ultrasound Scanner 3in1-CLC1CD indeed satisfied the ultrasonic criteria required for this specific scanning process.

This portable ultrasound scanner has a Convex 3.5/5MHz and a Linear 7.5/10MHz with an Electronic Array scanning mode. As a result, it’s convenient for precisely detecting the exact place of the deformed bone and so ensuring an accurate diagnosis, facilitating, in turn, the treatment choice.

Needless to say as well that blood flows to important organs such as muscles and legs in this case. This can be easily monitored using this wireless ultrasound scanner. This should mean that this ultrasound equipment is capable of producing extremely detailed scan images of those affected bones ensuring a thorough diagnosis and evaluation of the issue at hand.

The 3in1-CLC1CD mobile ultrasound scanner also has a color doppler for detecting blood velocity in the affected area where the bone deformity exists. Correspondingly, it’s worth mentioning that the probe’s head does not need to be replaced because the software can be updated instead.

Another beneficial option this ultrasound machine provides is that it performs Ultrasound-guided needle Insertions since sometimes the biopsies may be performed using small incisions in the operating room. This makes our wireless ultrasound machine very fit for such activity.

In short, the 3in1-CLC1CD ultrasound machine is an excellent wireless ultrasound scanner for any medical establishment. It does not require any extra training to use due to its simple interface. It’s light, portable, and simple to operate. But, most importantly, it is ideal for Paget’s Bone patients who started suffering from constant, dull bone pain. joint pain, stiffness and swelling and are still hopelessly looking for a precise diagnosis leading to a successful treatment.
