2019 Musculoskeletal Imaging in Clinical Practice – A Video CME Teaching Activity
Format: 34 Video Files + 1 PDF File
About This CME Teaching Activity
The CME Activity provides a review of clinical applications concerning the diagnosis, treatment and management of the musculoskeletal disorders. Modern imaging strategies, surgical correlation and the need for intra-disciplinary teamwork when deciding the most effective patient management will be addressed. Faculty share techniques and tips in image interpretation of musculoskeletal injuries and pathology. Information gained during this activity is geared to improve diagnostic capabilities and expand clinical applications. The faculty has been selected for their teaching ability, as well as for their expertise.
Target Audience
This CME activity is designed to educate diagnostic imaging physicians who supervise and interpret musculoskeletal MRI. In addition, referring physicians who order musculoskeletal MRI should gain an appreciation of the strengths and limitations of these types of procedures.
Educational Objectives
At the completion of this CME teaching activity, you should be able to:
- Incorporate state of the art imaging protocols to accurately assess musculoskeletal pathology and injury.
- Assess patients with joint pathology in a non-invasive manner utilizing MRI.
- Recognize the strengths and limitations of MRI for the management of sports related injuries.
- Describe the MR appearance of muscle and tendon injury.
- Differentiate musculoskeletal masses and tumors.
- Modify image sequencing to accurately evaluate joint replacement and minimize artifact.
- Discuss the utility of imaging when used to guide therapeutic musculoskeletal injections.
