UCSF Musculoskeletal Imaging

Overview

Continuing Medical Education: Advances in Musculoskeletal Imaging

UCSF Musculoskeletal Imaging is a comprehensive state-of-the-art update on various aspects of musculoskeletal imaging. This well-planned online CME course, directed by Ramya Srinivasan, MD, reviews pertinent anatomy and joint conditions for the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, ankle and foot, in addition to high-yield pathology topics such as musculoskeletal trauma, metabolic bone disease, arthritis and infection, and more. It’s radiology CME that will help you to better:

• Apply the latest knowledge to diagnoses and differentials for common musculoskeletal tumors
• Identify and differentiate various arthritides
• Diagnose osseous infections and mimics
• Recognize normal joint anatomy from pathology, and avoid common pitfalls
• Spot commonly-missed fractures
• Implement ultrasound as a useful tool in musculoskeletal imaging
