IDN Diagnostic Ultrasound For The Assessment & Dry Needling Treatment Of Tendinopathy
Diagnostic Ultrasound for The Assessment & Dry Needling Treatment of Tendinopathy is a 2 day, 95% hands-on-training course. In this advanced level course, you will master the 5 P’s system of diagnostic US assessment and treatment to confidently identify normal anatomy to facilitate clinical decision-making. Ultrasound guided dry needling treatment is focused on utilizing percutaneous needle tenotomy (PNT) for all the shoulder tendon insertions and other common sites of tendinopathy of the upper and lower extremity such as lateral elbow, Achilles tendon insertion, patella tendon, quadriceps tendon insertion, gluteus medius and minimus insertions. Research of PNT on commonly visualized tendon dysfunction supports that dry needling, in the symptomatic areas, can yield long-term benefits that rival wet needling procedures i.e. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections. You will learn and be able to give visual feedback to your patients demonstrating the anatomical condition of their joints and tendons.
*This is an advanced level course and it is a requirement that you have prior dry needling training and experience.
*Course content is not intended for use by participants outside the scope of their license or regulation.

Learning Objectives:
At the end of this course that participant will be able to:
- Demonstrate the application of the 5 P’s of diagnostic ultrasound in a given case study
- Discuss the current research on the benefits of percutaneous needle tenotomy for a given case study example.
- Independently demonstrate competence and safe technique in dry needling tendons while utilizing ultrasound.
- Demonstrate and produce images practicing scanning protocol for the shoulder and other specific tendons and nerves for the upper and lower extremities during lab sessions.
- Demonstrate the normal sonographic anatomy of the shoulder and various tendons and nerves of the upper and lower extremities during lab sessions.
- Demonstrate in and out of plane ultrasound guided dry needling techniques for a given musculoskeletal condition.
- Demonstrate ultrasound guided dry needling treatments for pathologic tendons of the upper and lower extremities for a given case study.
Learning Activities:
The structure of this course 16-hour intensive practical lab hands-on-lab and didactic program that addresses theory and key principles with extensive supervised participant practice.
- PowerPoint presentations supporting proper technique and current research.
- Learn use of MSK ultrasound to improve the participants understanding and appreciation for the anatomical structures of what is normal.
- Instructor demonstration of the techniques of evaluation and dry needling under MSK ultrasound.
- Interactive lab sessions where participants practice and save their MSK ultrasound images to be evaluated and discussed with the instructor.
- After each interactive lab section is concluded there is an instructor summary and time for participants to ask additional questions.
- Small group practice of MSK ultrasound imaging skills for the shoulder and other specific tendons and nerves of the upper and lower extremities
- Implement and practice utilizing the different techniques of handling the transducer to optimize MSK ultrasound image.
