This two (2) day course will focus on how ultrasound can make musculoskeletal diagnoses more precisely, accurately, and efficiently, and how findings can be applied clinically. This will enable a more targeted treatment approach for patients suffering from soft tissue injuries such as Stifle and Iliopsoas injuries. The course will include lectures, cadaver labs, injection techniques, and hands-on experience with ultrasound.
