Take Orthopedics to the Next Level

Free Webinar. Improve Patient Care and Increase Revenue with Ultrasound and Orthobiologics. 

Speaker: Jason Rand, PA – Jason is an Orthopedic PA from Boston Spine & Shoulder Center

A discussion on how ultrasound and orthobiologics add value to patient care and to an orthopedic practice. Learn how ultrasound can diagnosis MSK abnormalities, provide needle guidance, be a ‘first choice’ imaging modality over MRI and fluoroscopy, aid in patient retention, and help manage chronic pain during a time when some elective surgeries are postponed.

Will Covid-19 be the straw that breaks the stethoscope’s back?

As the Covid-19 pandemic reshapes how medicine is practiced in the U.S., one iconic tool could be relegated to the dustbin of medical history: the stethoscope. For generations, there has been no better physician archetype than the quintessential black rubber stethoscope donned confidently over a crisp white coat.

Lung Ultrasound in Patients with Acute Respiratory Failure Reduces Conventional Imaging and Health Care Provider Exposure to COVID-19

Lung ultrasound gained a leading position in the last year as an imaging technique for the assessment and management of patients with acute respiratory failure. In coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), its role may be of further importance because it is performed bedside and may limit chest X-ray and the need for transport to radiology for computed tomography (CT) scan.

Ultrasound on the Frontlines of COVID-19: Report from an International Webinar

The COVID-19 pandemic has spread to 185 countries with over 2.1 million confirmed cases and 145,000 deaths, as per the Johns Hopkins University COVID-19 dashboard provided at https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/map.html. Imaging modalities such as chest radiography, thoracic and cardiovascular ultrasound, and computed tomography have roles in the diagnosis, prognosis, monitoring, and therapy of COVID-19. However, the potential benefits of imaging need to be balanced against resource utilization and infectious risk.

I'm an ER doctor using ultrasound in innovative ways to combat COVID-19

I work at one of Philadelphia’s biggest hospitals, where we’re starting to see a surge in COVID-19 cases, and we’ve been able to adapt this common technology to more quickly diagnose coronavirus than using other techniques.

Ultrasound-guided interventions in sports and regenerative medicine

Konica Minolta Healthcare Americas UGPro® Solution Case Study.

Ultrasound is increasingly being used by sports and regenerative medicine physicians to supplement a diagnostic musculoskeletal (MSK) evaluation. With ultrasound, point-of-care (POC) healthcare providers can visualize soft tissue tears in muscles, tendons, ligaments and joint spaces at a high spatial resolution. Along with growth in diagnostic procedures, ultrasound is also increasingly being used to guide injections especially in pain management and regenerative medicine.

Ultrasound can benefit daily rheumatology practice

February 11, 2020 -- Ultrasound may benefit daily rheumatology practice, according to a study published on January 29 in JCR: Journal of Clinical Rheumatology. Researchers found that ultrasound-guided injections take less than 10 minutes and have a 98% accuracy rate.

Despite studies showing ultrasound's efficacy for some common rheumatological procedures, ultrasound is still not regularly used in many rheumatology departments. The new study suggests ultrasound may be a fast and cost-effective addition to synovial fluid aspirations and drug injections.
