<p begin="00:00:34.232" end="00:00:38.015" style="s2">as a bright, hyperechoic,<br />curved structure.</p>

<p begin="00:00:47.306" end="00:00:50.884" style="s2">to see the origin of the<br />muscle in a short access plane.</p>
<p begin="00:00:50.884" end="00:00:54.152" style="s2">The transducer is then<br />rotated 90 degrees clockwise</p>

<p begin="00:01:21.824" end="00:01:23.070" style="s2">The needle should be advanced</p>
<p begin="00:01:23.070" end="00:01:26.030" style="s2">until the needle tip lies<br />just above the bony surface</p>
<p begin="00:01:26.030" end="00:01:28.270" style="s2">within the conjoined tendon.</p>
<p begin="00:01:28.270" end="00:01:29.983" style="s2">Care should be taken to avoid</p>

<p begin="00:01:32.236" end="00:01:35.297" style="s2">which often overlies the conjoined tendon.</p>
<p begin="00:01:35.297" end="00:01:38.047" style="s2">The needle should be aspirated<br />prior to the injection</p>
