CPD: Applied For
Course Objectives
- Study real anatomy and the relationship of anatomical structures relevant to musculoskeletal injections in a variety of prosections.
- Practice injection techniques and scanning on cadavers.
What's Included?
- One day face-to-face course.
- CPD certificate upon completion.
This comprehensive and highly practical 1 day course takes place in the impressive facilities at Queen Mary University of London's cadaver laboratory and is the essential course for anyone looking to begin ultra- sound guided procedures, for clinicians looking to expand their repertoire of injections.
The practical workshops are carried out on soft-preserved full body cadavers, which is a very close match to the real thing. You have full access to perfect your skills on the cadavers. We have lots of machines and you will benefit from close supervision throughout from the faculty. The course is taught by experienced practitioners who will deliver the information you need and translate this information into the practical application of carrying out the guided injections.
