About Us
Master musculoskeletal ultrasound and image-guided injection techniques in our ACCME-accredited hands-on training course designed specifically for physicians. Learn transducer positioning, image optimization, and precise needle guidance from board-certified faculty.
Our Ultrasound-Guided Procedures Course is specifically designed for physicians who want to add image-guided injection techniques to their pain management or musculoskeletal practice.
A comprehensive curriculum covering everything physicians need to safely and effectively perform ultrasound-guided injections.
Master ultrasound fundamentals including image optimization, transducer selection, frequency settings, and gain adjustment. Understand the principles that create high-quality diagnostic images.
Learn precise needle guidance using In-Plane and Out-of-Plane approaches. Practice transducer manipulation, needle visualization, and real-time injection monitoring for shoulder, hip, knee, and extremity procedures.
Identify anatomical structures on ultrasound including tendons, ligaments, nerves, and joint spaces. Learn sonographic landmarks for each injection site.
Master transducer movements: sliding, tilting, rotating, and compression. Develop the hand-eye coordination essential for accurate guidance.
Review corticosteroids, viscosupplementation, PRP, and other injectates. Learn appropriate dosing and injection protocols for each condition.
Understand CPT codes, documentation requirements, and strategies to integrate ultrasound-guided procedures into your practice.
Understanding your capabilities and advantages as an MD or DO performing ultrasound-guided injections.
As licensed physicians (MD/DO), you have the broadest scope of practice for ultrasound-guided procedures. You can independently perform all MSK ultrasound examinations and guided injections without supervision, prescribe medications, and delegate procedures to other providers under your medical direction. Your medical training provides the foundation for comprehensive diagnostic and interventional ultrasound services.
Add a high-margin, high-value service to your practice with premium reimbursement for image-guided procedures.
Delegate ultrasound-guided procedures to trained NPs and PAs under your medical supervision. Scale your practice while maintaining quality oversight across all interventional services.
Studies show ultrasound-guided injections have higher accuracy rates and better clinical outcomes than landmark-based techniques, reducing complications and improving patient satisfaction.
Whether you're in family medicine, sports medicine, physiatry, emergency medicine, anesthesiology, or any other specialty, you can add ultrasound-guided procedures to your practice. Many physicians incorporate these skills to enhance their pain management capabilities and meet patient demand for minimally invasive treatments.
Receive your AAOPM Certificate of Completion with 6.5 CME credits. This certification satisfies requirements for malpractice insurance, hospital credentialing, and demonstrates your competency in ultrasound-guided interventional procedures.
