Course Intro

Introduction

The aim of this course is to provide you with the theoretical and practical knowledge on how to obtain an optimal image of the tendons, ligaments and muscles in the shoulder. In order to do so we will focus on basic anatomy and movements of these structures. We will cover the most common pathology seen on ultrasound within the shoulder. It is my belief that if you know the normal ultrasound appearances of anatomical structures, identifying pathology can be done with greater ease. Therefore, the focus of this course is on the normal. After completion of the course, you will have been given a basic scanning protocol and a good foundation to build on while developing your skill in practice.
