Course Overview

Ultrasound Guided Pain Management Course Overview

Ultrasound technologies are at the forefront of pain management treatments used today. Making use of new improvements in musculoskeletal transducers, physicians can visualize peripheral nerves and their adjacent structures clearly.

Ultrasound guided injections have reduced recovery time and decreased pain levels compared to other pain management techniques. They are safe and non-invasive, making them ideal for treating acute, subacute, and chronic conditions in all major joints.

This comprehensive course covers the full scope of ultrasound-guided injection techniques, taught by Dr. Ernest Roman MD and our board-certified pain management faculty.
