AB  - Since  the  mid-1990s,  point-of-care  ultrasound—that  is,  musculoskeletal  ultrasound  (MSKUS)  performed  and  interpreted  by  the  rheumatologist  evaluating  the  patient—has  become  a  tool  of  increasing  importance  to  rheumatologists.  MSKUS  is  a  valuable  imaging  technique  that  enhances  and  expedites  the  diagnosis  of  inflammatory  arthritides,  musculoskeletal  conditions,  large-vessel  vasculitis,  polymyalgia  rheumatica,  Sjögren  syndrome,  and  other  diseases.  The  American  College  of  Rheumatology  (ACR)  and  the  European  League  Against  Rheumatism  (EULAR)  have  recommended  guidelines  for  MSKUS  use  (McAlindon  et  al,  2012;  Möller  et  al,  2017),  and  rheumatology  training  programs  around  the  world  now  include  ultrasound  curricula  for  trainees  (American  College  of  Rheumatology,  2020;  Brown  et  al,  2004;  Kissin  et  al,  2013;  Naredo  et  al,  2010;  Torralba  et  al,  2015;  Torralba  et  al,  2017).
