This course also includes a 4-hour cadaver lab with un-embalmed human cadaver specimens. Performing ultrasound-guided interventions requires a strong knowledge base pertaining to scanning techniques, recognition of normal anatomy, pathologic conditions, and needle-guidance techniques. The use of human cadaveric specimens allows the participant to augment the scanning and interventional skills in order to immediately begin integrating the skills into clinical practice.

Live scanning demonstrations are performed for every joint as well as live PRP procedural demonstrations for various pathological conditions performed on actual patients. Extensive hands-on scanning sessions feature a 3:1 participant-to-faculty ratio with live standardized patient models, and inanimate phantoms, PLUS a 4-hour human cadaveric lab for ultrasound-guided procedures and advanced applications including BMAC and lipoaspirate techniques

This 3-day course is designed to provide pulmonologists, rheumatologists, internists and general practitioners up-to-date information on pulmonary manifestations of rheumatologic disorders.

Interventional techniques will be discussed and demonstrated with a hands-on lab. The combined 3-day program makes this an effective learning experience to improve the provider’s technical competency and patient outcome. This hands-on workshop offers training based on experience level. Participants will learn proper imaging techniques for the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle
