Ultrasound probe position for imaging adductors

Ultrasound probe position for imaging adductors
For this examination, the patient is supine with their leg slightly abducted and knee bent approximately 20 degrees.
(A) The transducer is positioned at the level of the pubic bone and oriented to provide a transverse view. From this position, the probe is gradually swept inferiorly along the adductor tendons and myotendinous junction and then along the muscle bellies.
(B) The transducer is positioned at the level of the pubic bone and oriented to provide a longitudinal view. From this position, the probe is gradually swept medially and laterally across the adductor tendons and muscles.
