General Practitioners

• Arthritis
• Plantar Fasciitis
• Primary Care
  Whether or not you should get an orthopedic MRI before seeing an orthopedic surgeon depends on your specific situation. In many cases, your primary care physician or general practitioner will initially evaluate your symptoms and conduct a physical examination. They may refer you to one of our orthopedic doctors in Raleigh.

Neurologists

• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common overuse injury. Arthritis is seen in the hand and wrist as in other joints. Trigger fingers, ganglion cysts and De Quervain’s tenosynovitis are also very common in patients who are experiencing hand and wrist pain.

Radiologist

• Ultrasound
  Sometimes it can be difficult to know exactly what is causing your joint pain. If your doctor believes that the pain is caused by swelling (or inflammation) of the joint he may recommend an ultrasound-guided injection.
• MRI
  The length of your appointment varies depending on the condition or injuries for which you are being treated and whether x-rays or an MRI is needed. Our doctors deliver individual attention and quality care, so please allow a minimum of one hour.
• Radiology
  At The Bone and Joint Surgery Clinic, our in-office radiology suite uses the latest technology available in digital imaging. Our radiology technologists use Digital Radiography (DR), eliminating the time consuming step of film processing and has lower radiation doses.
• X-Rays
• Computed Tomography
  Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive procedure that creates images with a magnetic field instead of x-rays.  An MRI scan is ordered when the physician suspects a soft tissue injury that cannot be seen on x-rays or CT scans.  A radiologist and our orthopaedic surgeon will read your MRI report and will use the MRI scan to determine the full extent of your injury. Results of the scan are usually available within a day. Once your results are ready, you’ll be able to view your MRI images and discuss your next steps of treatment with your physician.
