1 SDMS CME credit | Category: MSK
This introductory-level musculoskeletal ultrasound course offers an overview of the major bony landmarks used in sonographic evaluation of the elbow, wrist, ankle, knee, and hip. Attention will be given to developing an understanding of the location, method of identification, and the importance of each landmark to each region or joint. Once this foundation has been established, the utilization of each landmark in the completion of an ultrasound examination will be introduced.
Objectives:
- Identify and locate major bony landmarks of the elbow, wrist, ankle, knee, and hip.
- Develop an understanding of ultrasound bony landmarks used in musculoskeletal examinations.
- Implement the use of landmarks into a musculoskeletal ultrasound evaluation.

Ultrasound of the Shoulder
1 SDMS CME credit | Category: MSK
Dr. Benjamin Levine will present a complete tutorial for shoulder ultrasound and will include the rotator cuff as well as the tendons and structures around it. For each structure being examined there will be slides outlining the anatomy of the tendon under examination followed by a demonstration of the scanning technique. The use of split screen allows a clear view of the transducer orientation on the patient’s shoulder alongside the resulting image. Dr. Levine also includes tips and tricks to help with easier patient and transducer positioning for best results.
Objectives:
- The basic anatomy and ultrasound appearances of the component tendons, muscles, and joints of the shoulder.
- The exam technique including transducer placement and orientation.
- How to position a patient for a shoulder ultrasound, including tips on how to compensate for patient limitations.
