Ultrasound-guided upper limb surgery
BASIC COURSEThis introductory course provides surgeons with the essential knowledge and practical skills required to integrate ultrasound into upper limb surgical practice. Through expert lectures, live demonstrations, and extensive hands-on training, participants will learn to perform a systematic ultrasound examination, recognize key anatomical landmarks, and optimize ultrasound settings for surgical applications.
The course also focuses on common ultrasound-guided procedures, including injections, trigger finger release, carpal tunnel release, and the treatment of lateral epicondylitis, enabling participants to safely incorporate minimally invasive techniques into their daily practice.
