What You Can Do with SonoMaxx Ultrasounds in Rheumatology Practice
Visualize filler depth, detect vascular structures, and ensure symmetry during treatments—all with handheld clarity and control.
SonoMaxx handheld ultrasounds are designed for real-time, point-of-care diagnostics in rheumatology, simplify complex evaluations, and reduce referral lag.
- Identify early synovitis, tenosynovitis, and joint erosions
- Dynamic tendon and ligament assessments.
- Guide accurate corticosteroid injections for higher accuracy, less steroid waste, and better outcomes
- Evaluate bursae, tendons, and peripheral nerves (e.g., carpal tunnel, rotator cuff)
- Visualize real-time inflammation to boost patient adherence to DMARDs or biologics
Our handheld ultrasound devices are trusted companions of rheumatologists, internal medicine physicians, pain specialists, and orthopedic providers.

FAQ
Are the SonoMaxx images detailed enough for small joints like fingers and toes?
Yes. SonoMaxx’s high-frequency linear probes (up to 22 MHz) provide excellent resolution for superficial structures. This makes them ideal for imaging small joints of the hands, feet, or ankles. You can see joint capsules, synovial proliferation, erosions, and even subtle changes in early-stage disease.
Can I monitor disease progression or remission using SonoMaxx ultrasound?
Yes. SonoMaxx helps track synovial inflammation, erosions, and Doppler signal intensity over time. These objective measures make it easier to evaluate therapy response, adjust treatment plans, and support shared decision-making with patients. It’s especially valuable for long-term monitoring in RA, PsA, and other chronic rheumatologic conditions.
How does SonoMaxx integrate into my clinic workflow?
SonoMaxx is designed for flexibility—lightweight enough to fit in your pocket and ready to scan in seconds. You can perform quick assessments between consultations, save scans to EMRs, or share via encrypted Wi-Fi. Its portability eliminates scheduling delays and allows for on-the-spot diagnosis and treatment planning.
Do I need prior experience with ultrasound to use SonoMaxx handheld devices?
Not necessarily. If you’ve never used ultrasound before, a short POCUS (Point-of-Care Ultrasound) training course is usually enough to get started. The SonoMaxx interface is user-friendly and designed to be intuitive for clinicians. For those already familiar with musculoskeletal imaging, there’s virtually no learning curve.
Is SonoMaxx effective in differentiating inflammatory vs degenerative joint pain?
Yes. With Doppler and grayscale imaging, you can detect active synovitis, erosions, or bursitis, as opposed to osteoarthritic changes like joint space narrowing or osteophytes, supporting more accurate and individualized treatment plans.
