The aim of this two day course is deepening the ultrasound examination of the shoulder, in which probe positions are discussed from the basic course and expanded with additional in depth information or new positions. To make sure that all level 1 and 2 shoulder ultrasound skills will be placed in the bigger framework of clinical relevancy, clinical reasoning and clinical decision making, we will discuss all anatomy, pathology and probe positions to the clinical examination.

Course description

The aim of this two day course is deepening the ultrasound examination of the shoulder, in which probe positions are discussed from the basic course and expanded with additional in depth information or new positions. We will review the theory and practice ultrasound skills of several important osseous, cartilaginous, capsuloligamentous, myogenic, neurogenic, and vascular structures. We will not only have a look at normal anatomy, but also discuss some interesting pathology cases. To make sure that all level 1 and 2 shoulder ultrasound skills will be placed in the bigger framework of clinical relevancy, clinical reasoning and clinical decision making, we will discuss all anatomy, pathology and probe positions to the clinical examination. This course is totally evidence based, and of fantastic quality, and is a must-follow for all sonographers who work with shoulder patients.
