title: Ultrasound-Guided Percutaneous Tendon Treatments.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The purpose of this article is to review currently available tendon treatments, especially those performed with sonographic guidance.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Treatments of tendon disease have continued to develop and expand, and multiple therapeutic options have become available, all with varying levels of supportive clinical evidence of their efficacy. The use of ultrasound to direct these treatments improves accuracy and performance by facilitating visualization of the target and relevant adjacent structures.
