OVERVIEW

Introduction and Advanced/interventional & Regenerative Medicine Musculoskeletal Ultrasound is organized by Gulfcoast Ultrasound Institute (GCUS) Inc. and will be held from Aug 14 - 18, 2023 at Gulfcoast Ultrasound Institute, St. Petersburg, Florida, United States of America.

Overview :
Introduction to Musculoskeletal Ultrasound & Advanced Musculoskeletal Ultrasound: Interventional and Regenerative Medicine Live Training Course Provides Participants a Comprehensive Introduction to Musculoskeletal Ultrasound. These Courses Are Taught by Leading Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Experts That Incorporates Comprehensive Lectures on Upper and Lower Extremity Applications for Diagnostic and Ultrasound Guided Injection/aspiration Techniques as Well as Advanced Interventional and Regenerative Medicine Essentials. Live Demonstrations Are Also Included. Extensive Hands-on Scanning is Provided for Upper and Lower Extremity Applications Featuring a 3:1 Participant to Faculty Hands-on Scan Ratio With Live Models and Inanimate Phantoms and Human Cadaveric Specimens for Advanced Applications and Ultrasound-guided Procedures. An Additional Optional Interventional Human Cadaver Lab Can Also Be Added to the Introduction Portion of This Course. This is Highly Recommended for Those Interested in Performing Ultrasound-guided Procedures/interventions Such as Joint Aspirations and Injections.

Objectives :
• Increase the participant's knowledge to better perform and/or interpret MSK ultrasound exams.
• List the indications, benefits, and limitations of MSK ultrasound for sports medicine injuries, physical medicine & rehabilitation, and rheumatology applications.
• Demonstrate proper transducer manipulation and system optimization to produce diagnostic images.
• Demonstrate scanning protocols for performing shoulder, elbow, wrist/hand, knee, ankle/foot, & hip ultrasound examinations.
• Identify normal anatomy during musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging.
• Identify the sonographic appearance of commonly seen pathology of the shoulder, knee, elbow, wrist/hand, ankle, and foot, & hip.
• Demonstrate the use of MSK sonography for diagnosis and ultrasound-guided interventions and describe "in-plane" and "out of plane" injections/aspiration techniques using inanimate phantoms.
• Increase confidence to incorporate protocols, techniques, and interpretation criteria to improve diagnostic/treatment accuracy.
• Interpret complex musculoskeletal ultrasound images and list treatment options and patient management strategies.
• List protocols for ultrasound evaluation and treatment options of the spine.
• Outline new ultrasound-guided procedures for ligament, and tendon injuries.
• Demonstrate the principles of injection techniques for the performance of upper and lower extremity MSK interventions on cadaver models.
• Outline the biology and evidence for use of various regenerative substances.
• State when, why, and how to integrate regenerative medicine as a practical treatment option.
• Prepare regenerative substances for performing ultrasound-guided procedures.
• Outline post-procedural protocols for regenerative procedures.
• Demonstrate the principles of injection techniques for the performance of upper and lower extremity MSK interventions on cadaver models.
• State the role of ultrasound in nerve entrapment syndromes.
• List protocols for ultrasound evaluation and treatment options of the spine.
