What Is Platelet Rich Plasma(PRP)?
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is a process in which the patient’s own blood is used to separate platelets. We process the blood using an advanced, medical-grade super concentration unit. Our unit is capable of up to 9x (times) above the basic bedside centrifuge that most other physicians use. Our special PRP kits produce more cytokines, proteins, and growth factors than most other units on the market, for optimal healing support. Our kits are registered as class II devices with the FDA by the manufacturer.
Platelet Rich Plasma is then re-injected by our expert physician to the injured area. We use ultrasound images guided by needle recognition capability, ensuring delivery to the precise location.
Why MSK Ultrasound Image Guidance Is Important?
Most physicians treating orthopedic pain and injuries perform injections blindly without any image guidance. This freestyle technique results in 20%-40% missing the target location. The precise placement of orthobiologics, like stem cells or PRP, using image guidance, is a new specialty. Our physicians are trained to perform injections using ultrasound-guided needle recognition. We are supported by MSK, and expert ultrasound technicians as well. Musculoskeletal (MSK) ultrasound is a powerful to provide real-time images of muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, and cartilage throughout the body. This process guarantees the delivery of cells into the precise location of your injury.
