Optimize Diagnostic Skills

A comprehensive state-of-the-art update, UCSF Musculoskeletal MRI provides a review of pertinent anatomy and pathology of each joint, highlights the newest available sequences in cartilage lesion evaluation, and discusses optimized protocols with 1.5T and 3T MR units. Additional discussions cover bone and soft-tissue tumors, and bone marrow and muscle pathology. It will help you to better:

• Use optimized protocols for imaging of the musculoskeletal system, including suppression of metal hardware in patients with joint replacements
• Understand the MRI anatomy of the shoulder, digits, hip, knee and ankle
• Identify abnormalities of the joints, muscles, bone marrow and cartilage on MRI and their clinical significance
• Recognize common bone tumors with a pertinent differential diagnosis
• Identify suitable protocols and recognize abnormalities of cervical spine trauma

Learning Objectives

After viewing this activity, participants will demonstrate the ability to:

• Use optimized protocols for imaging of the musculoskeletal system, including protocols used to suppress metal hardware in patients with joint replacements
• Understand the MRI anatomy of the shoulder (with SAC), digits, hip, knee and ankle
• Be familiar with abnormalities of bone marrow, osteochondral disease, and traumatic injuries of muscle and bone
• Recognize typical features of cervical spine trauma
• Identify abnormalities and imaging pitfalls of the joints, muscles, bone marrow and cartilage on MRI and their clinical significance
• Recognize common bone tumors with a pertinent differential diagnosis (with SAC)

Intended Audience

The activity was planned for diagnostic radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine physicians, and MRI technologists with some basic or intermediate knowledge of musculoskeletal MRI who want to increase their knowledge to a more advanced level.
