01 · Imaging
Ultrasound for the regenerative clinic
Probe selection, knobology, the four diagnostic windows you need (knee, shoulder, hip, ankle), and the imaging signs that change your injection plan.

— 02 / What you'll master
Six skills you walk out with.
By 6 PM Sunday you can confidently scan, plan and inject the most common MSK / sports indications — and triage the cases that should not be injected.
02 · Orthobiologics
PRP / BMC / MSC / Exosome decision
When each biologic is the right tool, prep parameters that actually matter (platelet concentration, leuko-rich vs leuko-poor), and the clinical-evidence summary for each.
03 · Joint-by-joint
Knee · shoulder · hip injection map
A laminated, take-home protocol card: indication → biologic → volume → plane → post-injection rehab card per joint.
04 · Tendon & ligament
Tenotomy + biologic protocols
Percutaneous tenotomy, peritendinous infiltration, and the regenerative-protocol stack for partial-thickness rotator cuff and gluteal tendinopathy.
05 · Patient Selection
The triage tree
Red flags, MRI thresholds, the three patient phenotypes that should be referred for surgery first, and the consent-form language that protects your clinic.
06 · Post-Injection
Rehab + retention
The 6-week rehab card patients actually follow, the touchpoint cadence that drives 5-star reviews, and the case-mix that builds a sustainable MSK practice.
— Key Clinical Topics
Five clinical topics, decoded.
Each topic comes with the laminated injection cards, ultrasound checklists and post-injection rehab cards we use in daily practice.
Probe selection, knobology, the four diagnostic windows you need, and the imaging signs that change your injection plan.

— 08 / FAQ
Common questions.
MSK is open to MDs, DOs and licensed clinicians authorized to perform ultrasound-guided injection in their jurisdiction. NPs/PAs in U.S. states with appropriate scope are welcome — please confirm at registration.
You will scan live models in the ultrasound bootcamp. Injection practice is on phantoms (gelatin and chicken-leg models) — the standard for one-day certifications. Live-patient injection is faculty demo only.
No — multiple high-end ultrasound systems are provided at the stations. You may bring your handheld unit if you'd like to practice on it specifically.
Full refund until May 31. 50% refund June 1 – Aug 1. Non-refundable after Aug 1. Free transfer to another physician at your clinic up to 14 days pre-event. Force-majeure: credit carried to the next ISSCA event.
