Why should you follow this online course?
Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a valuable diagnostic tool for clinicians working in primary or secondary healthcare settings. Injuries to the ankle and foot are common and can be difficult to diagnose with clinical examination alone. MSK ultrasound offers a non-invasive and cost-effective alternative to other imaging modalities, such as MRI or CT scans. It provides real-time imaging of anatomical structures and can accurately diagnose conditions such as ligament tears, tendonitis, and fractures. This can lead to earlier and more accurate diagnosis, appropriate treatment, and improved patient outcomes. Additionally, MSK ultrasound can be used to guide interventional procedures, such as injections, and can help clinicians monitor the progress of healing. Incorporating MSK ultrasound in clinical practice can improve diagnostic accuracy and efficiency, resulting in more appropriate and timely treatment plans for patients with ankle and foot injuries. This can lead to increased patient satisfaction and loyalty, as well as improved reputation and revenue for healthcare practices.

The core of this course is based on an intensive review of the anatomy of specific regions, pathophysiology of common conditions within these regions, and evidence-based reviews of the use of MSK Ultrasound in the assessment of the locomotor foot and ankle system.

Who is the targeted audience?
No matter whether you are a radiologist, rehabilitation doctor, podiatrist, sports physician, orthopedic surgeon, or physiotherapist this course will cover all aspects of MSK ultrasound targeted to the foot and ankle joint while ensuring your path to understanding remains easy every step of the way.

Certificate
After completion you'll receive a digital SonoSkills Certificate of Attendance and proof of your CME points.
