APLAR SCENARIO – BASED EDUCATION IN POINT OF CARE ULTRASOUND IN RHEUMATOLOGY (POCRUS)

This USG course presents a new concept of ultrasound teaching in rheumatology. Whilst traditional
ultrasound courses focus on developing knowledge and skills of the ultrasonographer, this novel
scenario-based course will focus on how ultrasound is integrated into practice using an evidenced based
approach. It will highlight how the use of USG can facilitate patient diagnosis and management using
probability-based diagnostic algorithms.

Major clinical scenarios in day-to-day rheumatology practice will be discussed (e.g. acute monoarthritis,
oligoarthritis, small joint polyarthritis, polymyalgia or a large vessel vasculitis presentation).
