Comprehensive Individualized Instruction: US-Guided Bio-Skills Lab

Comprehensive Individualized Instruction: US-Guided Bio-Skills Lab is organized by Spine Intervention Society (SIS), International Pain & Spine Intervention Society (IPSIS) and will be held from Sep 26 - 27, 2026 at Grand Hyatt Washington, Washington, Dist Of Col, United States of America.

Description:
During Lab Rotations, Vetted Expert Instructors Will Provide You With Quality Hands-on Training in Groups of Up to 6 Attendees. You’ll Explore Necks, Shoulders, Ribs, Hips, and Knees on Cadavers and Live Models, Covering These Frequent Pain-generating Structures:

• Greater Occipital Nerve
• Cervical Medial Branch
• Stellate Ganglion
• Suprascapular Nerve
• Piriformis
• Acromioclavicular (AC) Joint
• Subacromial-Subdeltoid Bursa
• Intercostal Area
• Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve
• Trochanteric Bursa
• Intra-articular Hip Joint
• Intra-articular Knee Joint
• Intra-articular Shoulder Joint
• Intra-articular Sacroiliac Joint

In addition to cadavers, this course will also utilize a synthetic model to optimize your visualization of the spine.

When you register for this lab you also unlock access to the Ultrasound Interventions of the Spine and Masqueraders Core Curriculum streaming video lecture modules. An integral part of the program, they must be successfully completed prior to attempting the hands-on portions of the lab - enhancing the rigor of your learning experience.

Educational Objectives:
Upon completion of this course, participants should be able to:

• Analyze the imaging depiction of the relevant anatomy;
• Relate patient history and physical exam findings with imaging to achieve a likely diagnosis of the spinal pathology causing the patient’s pain or dysfunction;
• Describe the literature support for the efficacy of the procedures;
• Identify the risks and benefits of each procedure, as well as assessment, prevention, and treatment of potential complications;
• Apply technically correct performance of the spinal procedures using safe fluoroscopic guidance with minimal tissue injury or discomfort.
