03 Mar Musculoskeletal (MSK) Diagnostic Ultrasound Video Series
CME AccreditED for 8 Hours category 1 credit
Ultrasound represents an exciting method for healthcare providers to perform intra-office examinations on patients. Providers can see in REAL TIME what is going on in a specific joint, spine or soft tissue area to make a proper diagnosis. Patients appreciate ultrasound exams, knowing that the provider has obtained a valuable skill set to make an accurate diagnosis.
It is important for providers to have a “roadmap” for each anatomical region so that ultrasound studies are performed accurately and systematically every time. Learning the roadmap in conjunction with proper ultrasound technique definitely has a learning curve which requires repetition to master.
In R3’s exciting MSK Diagnostic Ultrasound Video Series, you will learn exactly how to evaluate the following areas of the body with ultrasound. The examinations are performed in real time, with R3’s expert Registered MSK Ultrasound Faculty Richard Kates narrating.
