The ultrasound guided injection module is intended to build on the information and practical skills obtained after completing the ACSEP Ultrasound course, including the introductory online module, or other similar courses which aim to build proficiency in basic ultrasound technique.
The module reviews the underlying principles around ultrasound physics and the use of ultrasound machines, along with assisting in aiding the learner to appreciate the appearance of normal MSK tissue and what may result from common ultrasound artefacts.
By facilitating the user on how to perform simple ultrasound guided procedures, particularly to joints and soft tissues, the module integrates background knowledge with ultrasound skills, in a safe and predictable manner.
Expertly presented by Dr David Humphries and supported by numerous video, graphics and photographic representation of injection techniques and needle positioning, this module will offer the opportunity for all Sport and exercise medicine practitioners to improve their skills in US guided injection procedures.
