Osteoporosis: Essentials of Densitometry, Diagnosis, and Management
The request for Bone Mineral Density (BMD) education for physicians and technologists in Canada has been overwhelming. As a result, the Ontario Association of Medical Radiation Sciences (OAMRS) is pleased to offer the Osteoporosis: Essentials for Densitometry, Diagnosis and Management course to meet this need.
This ISCD/IOF course is designed for experienced physicians and technologists who have worked or are working in the field. It offers an advanced curriculum, given over two days. This course will enable the attendee to identify advances in the diagnosis and management of common endocrine conditions. Attendees will appraise the applications of DXA technology, its limitations and pitfalls, and evaluate and monitor fracture risk. Participants will also be able to interpret the clinical utility of bone densitometry and describe the x-ray science, radiation safety and quality assurance of this modality.
Musculoskeletal Ultrasound: Assessment of the Elbow, Wrist, and Hand
Medical Imagining Ed presents this MSK Ultrasound program as a part of a larger series for Sonographers of all levels of experience. Diagnostic Ultrasound has become one of the most rapidly developing fields in musculoskeletal imaging. Dramatic advances in technology have broadened its applications and established ultrasound as an important tool in the assessment of musculoskeletal injuries. This seminar is intended to provide practicing Sonographers with relevant and accessible information important to the sonographic assessment of the upper extremity. Using an interactive case study format, the anatomy, technique, indications, sonographic appearances and pathologies of the elbow, wrist and hand will be considered.
