OBJECTIVE:
After completing the MSK Ultrasound BachelorClass, you will be capable of using MSK ultrasound in clinical practice with a critical and accurate approach.

The MSK Ultrasound BachelorClass will teach you the very basics of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound. You will learn how ultrasound works, how to apply it in your daily and clinical practice, and the particular advantages and disadvantages of this modality.

The key to learning Musculoskeletal Ultrasound will be a strong anatomical knowledge which will be achieved through a guided learning journey with beautifully dissected anatomy images and a first look at the appearance of these features in MSK Ultrasound. You will learn to easily translate the body’s 3D anatomy to 2D images through multiple high-quality short video lectures. You will further learn how to scan anatomical structures of the upper- and lower extremity according to standardized protocols.

The core of this course is based on an intensive review of the anatomy of specific regions, pathophysiology of common conditions within these regions, and evidence-based reviews of the use of MSK Ultrasound in the assessment of the locomotor system.

No matter whether you are a physician, physiotherapist or student, this course will cover all aspects of MSK Ultrasound at a basic level while ensuring your path to understanding remains easy every step of the way.

WHAT USERS THINK

It was a very informational, exciting and dynamic experience, with a lot of learning potential both theoretically and practically. I would recommend the course to everyone who would benefit from ultrasound diagnostic and therapeutic application.

Nikola Andrić

An amazing course, the e-learning platform was the game changer. So well laid out, it allowed me to learn at my own pace. I wish all courses provided an elearning platform this good! Thanks, SonoSkills, you practice what you preach “excellence in musculoskeletal ultrasound training.

Paul McIntyre

The professional videos and high-quality content on the SonoSkills eLearning Platform provide an exceptional learning experience. As a hand therapist, I have so far completed the Introduction to MSK Ultrasound and the three upper extremity courses. In addition to providing me with a strong theoretical foundation in musculoskeletal sonography, the coursework has refined my understanding of anatomy and pathology of the shoulder.

Brocha Z. Stern

It is great! I saw many new things to warm my rusty brain, and much more familiar things, from good old anatomy which I totally forgot. It is very motivating and I am eager to learn more.

Djordje Letic

Thank you for the high-quality course!

Ahmed Benzoghli
