The course covers MRI acquisition, normal anatomy, normal variations and approach to MRI interpretation of patterns of disease in the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand hip, knee, ankle and foot. Each module is composed of an overview lecture followed by focused lectures. After each lecture, delegates view cases on PACS software alone or in small groups with surgical correlation. This allows for practical reinforcement of the fundamental principles in imaging interpretation.
