Review of Anatomy

Hip anatomy
Knee anatomy
Foot/Ankle anatomy

Each of these sections allows participants to learn relevant anatomical structures of each body part visible on ultrasound, as well as how to administer interventional pain injections to each area.

Ultrasound Evaluation

During ultrasound evaluation, participants gain an understanding of what a normal ultrasound of each body part should look like, as well as how to perform a standardized review of each joint and its important anatomical structures, like nerves and ligaments.

Ultrasound Evaluation of Anatomical Pathology

After learning about normal anatomy, participants learn about pathological evaluations of these joints in order to assess damage and measure and diagnose pathology.

Hands-On Scanning

The final portion is hands-on training, where participants receive dynamic experience performing diagnostic and interventional ultrasound techniques. Participants will have an opportunity to perform extremity nonspinal injections, as well as interventional pain management injections.

Also, each participant receives a procedure as well!
