Course summary

Course materials were developed from the Live Upper Extremities MRI Conference held September 10-14, 2023.

Join Dr. Donald Resnick, Dr. Stephen Pomeranz, Dr. Christine Chung, and Dr. Megan Mills in this 5-part, in-depth musculoskeletal radiology series on MR imaging of assessment of the upper extremities.

This series of MSK lectures and case reviews will provide radiologists with a practical overview of the use of MR imaging and MR arthrography in the assessment of the upper extremities with a focus on the most common articular disorders and those internal derangements that are encountered daily in clinical practice.

You will get an in-depth understanding of the anatomies of the upper extremities, common pathologies, and how to communicate your findings. Additionally, Dr. Resnick and his co-presenters will walk through effective search patterns and how to distinguish between normal variations and pathologic abnormalities. 

Topics covered in this course: 

  • Anatomy and suggested terminology 
  • Common disorders and internal derangements 
  • Impingements
  • Supporting structures including tendons and ligaments 
  • Case discussion on rotator cuff, superior labrum including SLAP, throwing shoulder, glenohumeral joint instability
  • …and more!
