Description:
Upon completion of this program, participants should be able to:

- Develop a shoulder checklist method including interpretation techniques for the rotator cuff and interval, biceps labral complex, inferior glenohumeral ligament complex, and capsular structures including the anterior band.

- Identify glenoid wear patterns in multidirectional instability, microinstability, anterior and posterior instability.

- Develop knee checklist with foolproof ACL diagnosis and techniques for prospective diagnosis of all types of meniscal tears, differentiating circumferential surface from cross sectional tear patterns.

- Introduce strategies in the evaluation of the cruciate ligaments, posterolateral instability, and articular cartilage.

- Develop a femoroacetabular impingement checklist and distinguish between FAI and DDH pathology. Discuss approaches for accurate acetabular-labral tear identification.
Introduce orthopedic articular cartilage classification for the acetabular roof.

- Develop an ankle checklist including articulations, ligaments, tendons and articular cartilage. Understand all types of soft tissue ankle impingement and posterior ligamentous and subtalar joint anatomy.

- Develop a wrist checklist with emphasis on the intrinsic and extrinsic ligaments and the triangular fibrocartilage. Understand the relevance of perilunate instability, SLAC, and triscaphe arthritis.

- Develop an elbow checklist with the ability to differentiate epicondylitis frominstability patterns and understand posterolateral instability and the Circle of Horii.
