Learning muculoskeletal ultrasound is challenging. We provide an interactive, problem based approach to learning how to ultrasound the shoulder in a pediatric patient, focusing on key anatomy, static positioning, and dynamic maneuvres, using a stepwise logical approach. Photographs with tranducer positions are provided. Cine images are provided for dynamic maneuvers. This approach may provide a framework for musculoskeletal ultraound workhops that can be adapted for the pediatric radiology trainee, or ultrasound technician. Read More

The anatomy of the temporal bone is complex and dense. Learning its complexity provides a challenge. One method to facilitate its learning is the 'method of loci' method. It is a method of memory enhancement which uses visualizations with the use of spatial memory, familiar information about one's environment, to quickly and efficiently recall information. This educational exhibit uses a simple story and imagery superimposed on the multiplanar CT images to impose a natural structure and sequence that will aide in learning how to read, and detect normal, and abnormal anatomy of the temporal bone.
