Traditional acupotomy treatment can easily cause re-injury of soft tissues, and its safety is gradually being valued. With the development of imaging technology, visualized acupotomy operations are increasingly used in clinical practice. Starting from the development and evolution of acupotomy, the authors summarize the advantages and clinical application of ultrasound-guided acupotomy in cervical spondylosis, scapulohumeral periarthritis, lumbar disc herniation and knee osteoarthritis.
