The course will encompass a diverse range of topics, covering various aspects of rheumatology and autoimmune diseases, including pathophysiology, diagnostic approaches, treatment modalities, and emerging therapeutic interventions. The course features engaging lectures, interactive case studies/discussions that simulate real-world clinical scenarios
The course offers both a beginner and intermediate track so that the hands-on workshops can be tailored to participants' needs and prior experience with musculoskeletal ultrasound. The field of rheumatology has witnessed a remarkable advancement in ultrasound technology, revolutionizing the diagnostic and interventional capabilities in the assessment of musculoskeletal conditions
The course will highlight the importance of collaboration among various specialties, such as pulmonology, dermatology, cardiology, neurology, and rheumatology, to optimize patient outcomes. By the end of the course, participants will have enhanced their ability to provide comprehensive care for patients with sarcoidosis, utilizing a team-based approach to improve health outcomes
This course is designed for health care professionals, including physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, fellows, and residents, with an interest in allergy, immunology, rheumatology, hematology and beyond.
Participants should be able to: Discuss the most up-to-date evidence-based treatment approaches in the management of rheumatic diseases; identify and describe recent scientific and clinical advances regarding the pathogenesis of rheumatology
Bone Day is back! This biannual OSU conference has been a highly regarded meeting for over 20 years, but has been on hold due to the pandemic. We are excited to get together in person to provide the newest information on ways to better approach and treat our patients who have had fractures and are at risk for more broken bones. Join us live to network with the speakers and connect with fellow providers. We will update you on the latest in evidence-based information for treating osteoporosis
The blended education format provides flexibility: Participants begin with the self-paced online course, taught by leading musculoskeletal ultrasound experts, incorporating comprehensive lectures and interactive case presentations, and post-activity quizzes. Then participants attend 1-day (6 hours) scanning skills workshop featuring the industry lowest 3:1 participant to expert faculty ratio with standardized patient models and inanimate phantoms for interventional practice.
This course also includes a 4-hour cadaver lab with un-embalmed human cadaver specimens. Performing ultrasound-guided interventions requires a strong knowledge base pertaining to scanning techniques, recognition of normal anatomy, pathologic conditions, and needle-guidance techniques. The use of human cadaveric specimens allows the participant to augment the scanning and interventional skills in order to immediately begin integrating the skills into clinical practice.
Live scanning demonstrations are performed for every joint as well as live PRP procedural demonstrations for various pathological conditions performed on actual patients. Extensive hands-on scanning sessions feature a 3:1 participant-to-faculty ratio with live standardized patient models, and inanimate phantoms, PLUS a 4-hour human cadaveric lab for ultrasound-guided procedures and advanced applications including BMAC and lipoaspirate techniques
This 3-day course is designed to provide pulmonologists, rheumatologists, internists and general practitioners up-to-date information on pulmonary manifestations of rheumatologic disorders.
Interventional techniques will be discussed and demonstrated with a hands-on lab. The combined 3-day program makes this an effective learning experience to improve the provider’s technical competency and patient outcome. This hands-on workshop offers training based on experience level. Participants will learn proper imaging techniques for the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle
