Visual identification of muscles and depth control of needle placement are the key
features of sonography-guided injection that lead to improved targeting and safety
of BoNT/A injections. This method may be especially helpful to validate already established
injection techniques or when learning the correct injection technique. We recommend
sonography-guided injection as a simple and painless “add-on” to the currently used
standard procedure of palpation. The additional expenditure for sonography-guided
injection is more than offset by the improved reliability in correct needle placement.
