UCSF Neuro and Musculoskeletal Imaging Oakstone 2024

This online CME course delivers a comprehensive review of clinically relevant developments in neuroradiology and musculoskeletal imaging, including a discussion of optimized protocols with 1.5T and 3T MR. Faculty discuss disorders commonly seen in general practice, along with updates designed to improve image acquisition and interpretation strategies.

Continuing medical education topics covered in UCSF Neuro and Musculoskeletal Imaging include an overview of adult and pediatric neuro disorders, an introduction to musculoskeletal ultrasound, and more:

Head & neck tumor staging
CSF leaks
Major joints
Sports imaging
Bone marrow and tumors
Inflammatory arthropathies
Date of Original Release: May 16, 2024
Series Expiration Date: May 15, 2027

Learning Objectives
After viewing this activity, the participant will demonstrate the ability to:

Recommend CT/MR protocols for brain, head & neck, spine, nerve and musculoskeletal imaging
Recognize specific imaging features of infection, trauma, tumors, and inflammatory disorders in the head & spine, and communicate key findings enabling rapid pathological classification
Distinguish between normal anatomy, common anatomic variants and pathological disorders of the major musculoskeletal joints, brain, head & neck, and spine as evaluated on MRI
Recognize internal derangement and post-operative appearances of the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle and foot
Implement utilization of diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound, ultrasound-guided musculoskeletal procedures and common joint injections
Identify important imaging characteristics of infection, bone and soft-tissue tumors
Understand advanced neuroimaging techniques including fMRI, DTI and MR neurography
Develop strategies for evaluating common and uncommon abnormalities in the brain and spine
Intended Audience
This course is targeted toward radiologists and other medical professionals who will benefit from an increased understanding of neuro and musculoskeletal imaging methods, interpretation and diagnosis.
