Canine diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound

This course is completely online, accessible to you from the comfort of your own home (or work) and with the ability to complete at your own pace.

The first module you will have access to is the introduction to MSK US, once you have successfully completed the pre-requisites for that module, the next will become available to you. For example, following the completion of INTRO you will gain access to the shoulder module, once you have completed the shoulder module you will gain access to the next module, etc.

Each homework will test your technique and imaging. All homework will be personally graded by Dr. Debra Canapp and feedback will be given in a timely manner. You will have the opportunity to make corrections (if needed) based on the feedback and resubmit your homework for a final grade. Homework submission guidelines will be provided within the course platform.

The difference is in the content. Not only do you get introduction to MSK ultrasound but you get 5 separate modules on pathology, case studies, imaging, techniques and real life troubleshooting for iliopsoas, stifle, tarsus, shoulder and carpus. There is homework provided to help practice what you learn with real time feedback from Dr. Debra Canapp, as well as a chance to re-submit the homework once you’ve received the feedback. You receive all of this for 12 months to complete at your own pace, with an option to extend at the end. We will also be providing optional monthly demonstrations / Q&A’s.

It is not required to have an ultrasound machine or probe, however it is necessary in order to submit the homework as they are technique and image based. Homework is not required but highly recommended to perfect your technique and is required for eligibility to submit remote reads in the future. *If you are interested in purchasing an ultrasound machine, Please go to our 'recommendations' page for more information on a few we like.

Probe recommendations for the best outcome is a linear transducer with a range of 12MHz, 15MHz, or 18MHz (minimum of 12MHz). Clinically and diagnostically we recommend at least 15MHz with the best being 18MHz.

No. We offer special pricing for multiple doctors within a clinic interested in taking this course, so please do not share your log-in or content with someone else. If we are alerted to the multiple log-in/use of one account, you will be dismissed from the course without a refund.

We truly believe having the ability to learn at your own pace, have 24/7 access to the content, quizzes and personalized feedback on the homework will help reinforce the knowledge obtained within this course. Thus allowing you to excel in your own practice.

We do offer special pricing for hospitals with multiple interested doctors. To qualify, all interested doctors must be actively employed by the same location.
