Sports Medicine Imaging
CME Group, June 2008
This program is designed as a state-of-the-art update on all facets of sports medicine imaging for the radiologist, orthopaedic surgeon, and sports medicine physician. Didactic lectures on imaging of the spine and all articulations are provided. In addition, current thinking on musculoskeletal pediatrics, musculoskeletal ultrasound, cartilage, and post-operative imaging of the shoulder, knee, and wrist are featured. This course also provides panel discussions and interesting case sessions.
Target Audience:
This course is designed for practicing and clinical radiologists, particularly those who concentrate in musculoskeletal imaging. Orthopaedic surgeons will also be interested in this program.
There are also separate interactive MR arthroscopic correlation sessions for the knee, shoulder and wrist, as well as physical demonstrations of the common presentations of several sports injuries.
Statement of Need
Continuous technological advances in imaging techniques need to be applied in current clinical practice. In addition, maintenance of certification requires ongoing review of essential techniques involving musculoskeletal imaging and sports medicine imaging.
Learning Objectives
- Based on advanced imaging techniques, identify the optimal sequences for imaging cartilage,
given patients with sports injuries
- Based on arthroscopic and radiographic correlations, take into account differences in approaches
between the radiologist and orthopedist so as to provide better patient care
- Based on advances in MR imaging criteria and given patients who present chronic or acute
sports-related pain, more effectively diagnose a broad spectrum of athletic injuries
- In order to improve diagnostic acumen, apply appropriate advanced imaging techniques for
internal derangements of the hip, knee, shoulder, elbow, wrist, and ankle
- Based on the latest standards-of-care imaging criteria, more effectively assess the imaging
features of spine trauma to categorize patients into those who will benefit from conventional
medical management vs. those who will require surgical intervention
- Given the advances in MRI and ultrasound, better narrow differential diagnosis and thus improve
interpretation skills when assessing studies of patients suffering pain and tenderness in the ankle and foot
