This thorough and extensive set of online CME courses from NYU Langone Advanced Imaging of the Musculoskeletal System: Up Your Game covers important subjects such typical sports injuries, bone cancers, arthritis and cartilage imaging, pediatric imaging, and AI. With continuing medical education, you can learn about new developments in MR, CT, and US while also updating your abilities, enabling you to:
Enhance treatment decision-making by becoming familiar with how to change imaging methods and protocols for all musculoskeletal MRI applications.
Create a working differential for malignancies of the bone and soft tissues, and determine when further imaging or tissue sampling are necessary.
Examine the effectiveness of imaging in the detection and management of common musculoskeletal infections and inflammatory arthritides.
Describe methods to enhance MR imaging with hardware and regions of pathology that can be detected after hip, knee, or shoulder arthroplasty.
Learning Intentions
Following this activity, health professionals ought to be able to:
In order to improve treatment decision-making, determine the best ways to adapt imaging techniques and procedures for all musculoskeletal MRI sites, including: the hip, knee, shoulder, and foot.
Create a working differential for malignancies of both the soft tissues and the bone, and determine when further imaging or tissue sampling are necessary.
Analyze the role of imaging in the diagnosis and management of common musculoskeletal infections, such as septic hip and discitis, as well as inflammatory arthritides including rheumatoid and spondyloarthropathies.
Describe methods that can be used to enhance MR imaging when hardware is present and the main pathologies that can be identified in patients who have had hip, knee, and shoulder arthroplasty.
