About this course
Why should follow this on line ultrasound after surgery course?:
Pain after shoulder surgery including rotator cuff repair and long head of the biceps tendon procedures can be a challenging diagnostic problem. Ultrasound has a role as part of routine evaluation including history and physical exam, repeat x-rays, and potentially MRI to help determine areas of new or continue pathology in the setting of surgery. Being familiar with common surgical procedures such as rotator cuff repair implants, suture material, augments and placement around the shoulder helps the sonographer and clinician understand what may be expected after surgery and what is pathologic and unexpected. Additionally, when no failure of the surgery is identified with the diagnostic evaluation, ultrasound can help with a diagnostic injection to additional structures around the shoulder.
