Alright, firstly, I don't typically utilize ultrasound in the conventional diagnostic methods, such as examining a developing fetus or conducting other internal inspections. My usage of ultrasound is primarily therapeutic. It's used to alleviate muscle spasms or enhance blood circulation to strained muscles or joints. It's also extremely beneficial for conditions like frozen shoulders, also known as adhesive capsulitis.

Furthermore, ultrasound can help identify potential bone fractures. However, it's important to mention that this is only an initial assessment and should always be complemented with an X-ray for a more accurate diagnosis. I hope this provides some clarity about the significant role of ultrasound as both a diagnostic and therapeutic tool.

I'm not a sonographer, so I'm not sure this question should really have been directed my way. However, interestingly enough I actually do have a very limited experience of ultrasound examinations, and thinking about it I'd be hard-pressed to work out whether I have the most experience as an observer of my little one's antenatal ultrasound scans, or whether I have more experience with ultrasound examinations used in industry for non-destructive evaluation of things like microstructural cracks in metals or welding defects- presumably an entirely different sort of examination to the sort of things you're thinking about, but ultrasound examination none-the-less.

I'm sure there's sonographers on the site somewhere - I'll try to add a couple of more relevant tags to the question to see if we can get some of them to see the question.
