Echoosteoscope

Echoosteoscope: a new tool for diagnosing bone diseases

An echoosteoscope is a new instrument that is used to diagnose bone diseases. The name of the instrument comes from the Greek words "echo-" (echo) and "osteon" (bone), as well as from the word "skopeo" (to look, observe).

The echoosteoscope operates on the basis of ultrasound diagnostic technology, which allows you to obtain images of bone tissue and determine its condition. Ultrasound waves emitted by the echoosteoscope pass through the bone and are reflected from its various structures, forming an image on the device screen.

This tool can be used to diagnose various bone diseases such as osteoporosis, fractures, tumors and other pathologies. It can also be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment.

The echoosteoscope has several advantages over other methods for diagnosing bone diseases. Firstly, it does not use ionizing radiation, which makes it safe for the patient and the doctor. Secondly, it can be used for diagnosis in both adults and children. Thirdly, it has high sensitivity and diagnostic accuracy.

However, like any instrument, the echo-osteoscope has its limitations. For example, it may be less effective in diagnosing bone diseases with thick soft tissue surface bones, such as the femur. Also, some rare bone diseases may be difficult to diagnose with this tool.

Overall, the echoosteoscope is a new and promising tool for diagnosing bone diseases. Its advantages include safety, high accuracy and sensitivity, and can be used in adults and children. However, the limitations of this tool must be taken into account, and the clinician must select a diagnostic method depending on the specific situation and patient.



Echoostesoscope (echo + Greek οστεον bone and Greek σκοπος look) is a device for external observation of the bone cavity. Used in the treatment of bone diseases (osteomyelitis, false joints, osteomyelitis). The information obtained as a result of the study is auxiliary for correct diagnosis, since with modern research methods this largely depends on the radiologist.

When examining patients, the condition of the bone tissue is of great importance, so the surgeon or traumatologist must have an idea of ​​the condition of the outer part of the bone. However, all devices for bone echoscopy require preliminary calcification of the bone in order to detect inclusions of microcalcifications with an audible signal. Therefore, joint ultrasound devices (enthesophotoscopy) as a screening method for inflammatory processes still remain ineffective due to the lack of the necessary special functions.

**Advantages and disadvantages of bone echolocation relative to ultrasound**

If we evaluate both research methods, we cannot ignore the obvious advantage of ultrasound over echolocation, namely the ability to determine the bone structure and make an accurate differential diagnosis. However, ultrasound cannot be used for emergency diagnosis of inflammatory diseases.
