Abstract

Berta Kowalska in her paper (1) has given a clear and concise overview of the ultrasound technique for performing ultrasound-guided interventions, mainly outlining the use of steroid injections and aspiration. Standardization and clear guidelines on these techniques will improve their efficacy and development. It was beyond the remit of the article to cover some of the finer details of peri-procedural technique or to evaluate some of the more controversial issues regarding ultrasound-guided injections. I would however encourage readers to consider some of these issues, which are addressed under the various headings below.
