Teaching Schedule
Part 1 – Upper Limb
- Onsite(Offline) Training: 19th, 20th & 21st June 2026(Venue: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India)
- Guided Self-Study: 22nd June 2026- 7th January 2027(Assignments)
Part 2 – Lower Limb
- Onsite(Offline) Training: 8th, 9th & 10th January 2027 (Venue: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India)
- Guided Self-Study: 11th January2027-18th June 2027(Assignments)
The on-site/offline teaching sessions include detailed discussions on anatomy, demonstration of sonoanatomy on healthy volunteers, and live clinical examination techniques. These sessions also cover common pathologies and their management, along with step-by-step guidance on performing ultrasound-guided interventions.
Guided self-study includes reference study materials, MCQs for self-assessment, and assignments. As part of the assignments, participants will submit case-based work, including details of case management along with normal and pathological ultrasound images, supported by clear descriptions.
