SMUG 2022 Virtual MSK Ultrasound Event

SMUG is excited to announce their 2nd Virtual MSK Ultrasound Event. We have an exclusive line-up with very special guests: Stephen Bird, Mederic Hall, Iñigo Iriarte and Carles Pedret will share their knowledge with us.

Learn from some of the best in MSK ultrasound, get some top tips to improve your scanning, gain new insights to challenge your injury management, and ask the experts your questions directly.

Stephen Bird, pioneer in MSK ultrasound - US of the wrist joint: Underused and underrated! If you do not feel ultrasound is useful in the diagnosis of wrist pain then this is a MUST watch presentation from one of the pioneers of MSK US. It will change your outlook on the role of US in the diagnosis of wrist pathology and take your skills and knowledge to the next level.

Mederic Hall MD, legend in MSK Ultrasound and clinical application in Sports Medicine. If you find it challenging to translate image findings and clinical presentation into management decisions (don't we all!) then don't miss this. Mederic will give you new insights into the latest ultrasound interventions and management strategies. From sono-surgery for tendons, management decisions in thigh muscle injuries, peripheral nerve involvement in MSK injuries and beyond. Mederic is your man for advice on your challenging cases.

Dr Iñigo Iriarte - Ultrasound of the sole of the foot, taking away fears. A new approach. Presentation and practical demonstration will explore the use of ultrasound to recognise the most important structures of the sole of the foot. This region can be challenging, and maybe this is why it is often not given the time it deserves! US can provide the detailed information other imaging modalities cannot!

Iñigo is a highly experienced clinician and co-author of THE new MSK Ultrasound reference book; Ultrasound of the Musculoskeletal System: Anatomical exploration and pathology. He is also responsible for the exquisite anatomical illustrations. @MSKFreak

Dr Carles Pedret - For muscles and tendon injuries, this is your man. Joining us once more, the co-author of THE new MSK Ultrasound reference book; Ultrasound of the Musculoskeletal System: Anatomical exploration and pathology. Carles will discuss muscle and tendon reinjury in sports medicine and will share new insights to challenge your clinical decisions.

Do not worry if you cannot make the date - you will be sent the recording to watch at your own convenience! Places limited so do not delay...book now!

The SMUG team is very proud to present this exciting Virtual MSK ultrasound Event. Bringing together the best in MSK US.

The event will be hosted by SMUG Heads of Faculty Robert Laus & Chris Myers.

We are passionate about educating/teaching other clinicians the great clinical value of ultrasound imaging; we developed our popular, tailored, highly practical courses for MSK clinicians, in small groups, closely supervised by experienced tutors, with a strong emphasis on integrating ultrasound imaging into clinical assessment and treatment management in Sports Medicine.
