MEETING DESCRIPTION:
This one-day, hand’s-on learning activity will bring students and teacher together for an intensive learning experience in musculoskeletal ultrasound with the intent of introducing the student to the wealth of information ultrasound is capable of revealing about the morphology and dynamic physiology of the shoulder. Time in lecture will be balanced by dynamic scanning sessions, which serve to re-enforce the anatomy, physiology and pathology of the bony shoulder, the rotator cuff, ligaments, tendons and muscles of the shoulder. Normal examples and common diseases of the shoulder will be presented along with techniques the examiner will find useful in defining normal from abnormal shoulder anatomy. Pathology such as tendon tear, hematoma, synovial diseases and abnormalities of the cartilage will be discussed. Examples of these common abnormalities will be presented. A structured approach for examining the shoulder with ultrasound will be addressed. Students interested in learning to use ultrasound to evaluate the shoulder will take home a wealth of knowledge useful for everyday clinical applications.

Course Topics
• Normal shoulder anatomy and physiology
• The normal appearance of tendons, ligaments, cartilage and bone
• Examples of common shoulder injuries and disease
• Focused mechanisms of examination for specific structures or disease
• A protocol designed to grant thoroughness and consistency to the ultrasound examination
• Hands-on practice with live models
