Musculoskeletal Ultrasound (MSKUS) can replace many of the antiquated bedside clinical tests that have poor sensitivity and specificity leading to inaccurate conclusions about the patient’s condition. Accurate diagnosis is paramount to specifically and effectively treating common MSK conditions such as partial tears and tendinopathies. MSKUS allows the clinician and the patient to view real-time anatomy and determine the condition of the soft tissue resulting in an informed plan of care. The satisfaction levels of both patients and referral sources will skyrocket as will treatment outcomes!
Becoming a Certified Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Clinician (Cert-MSUC) through the Integrative Dry Needling Institute requires a total of 6 days (54 hours) of supervised in-person training in the clinical application of MSKUS.
