What type of imaging study is used for guidance for injections and anesthetics?
- A.
MRI
- B.
Ultrasound
- C.
CT Scan
- D.
X-Ray

It uses sound waves to create detailed images of the body's internal structures, allowing healthcare professionals to accurately visualize the needle placement and ensure precise delivery of medication or anesthesia. Ultrasound is particularly useful for guiding injections in soft tissues, joints, and nerves, as it can visualize these structures in real-time, minimizing the risk of complications and improving the accuracy and effectiveness of the procedure.Rate this question:
