Why should you follow this hands-on course?
Ankle and foot problems are super common and can have a major impact on someone's daily life. Advanced diagnostic ultrasound allows for quick and accurate identification of the problem, guiding appropriate treatment and improving patient outcomes. Ultrasound is a valuable alternative to MRI imaging, providing high resolution images in real time, without the need for ionizing radiation. By mastering advanced MSK ultrasound knowledge and skills, healthcare professionals can provide better patient care and build a thriving business. And what's more, attending a course like SonoSkills in beautiful Amsterdam is a great way to meet international peers and have some fun while learning.

What exactly is the included eLearning?
This course is blended, meaning a combination of online and onsite learning. Blended learning is an additional element to classroom teaching and one which supports existing teaching practices. It combines many of the best elements of face-to-face teaching (personalized learning and social interaction) while allowing greater variety and flexibility than a traditional classroom setup, responding to the needs of the modern learner. Over 100 videos, totaling to over 12 hours of content are available to you on-demand before, during, and after the course for 6 months. A €475 value included in your registration!
