Welcome 

Dear Colleagues,

The Rheumatology Division at Hamad Medical Corporation is delighted to invite you all to participate in our 8^th Qatar Musculoskeletal Ultrasound course.

Owing to its tremendous success in the last seven years, we have increased the number of trainers and sessions to accommodate more participants and give them a lot more to take away from the course which is happening in Doha from the 6th to the 9th of October 2022.

This 4-day event will be graced by medical professionals from across the globe and is tailor- made to meet the demands of practice in multidisciplinary specialties. It stands out from similar courses due to the impact it creates by expanding one’s knowledge in the subject thereby resulting in better diagnosis and treatment

We would also like to extend our invitation to other specialties that are interested in Musculoskeletal Ultrasound such as:

• Rheumatologists
• Orthopedics
• Anesthesia and Pain Management
• Physiotherapy
• Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
• Radiology
• Sports medicine
• Internal medicine (Physician)
• Emergency Medicine
• Podiatry
• Others
• Fundamental Level (6 to 7 October 2022): This course is for beginners in ultrasound practice or those with little experience in MSK ultrasound.
• Intermediate Level (6 to 7 October 2022): For those who have done at least 2 basic level courses, practice ultrasound regularly and they would like to improve their skills to a higher level.
• Monographic Course (8 to 9 October 2022): For the very first time in the world, we are introducing joint-focused in-depth ultrasound training. This additional course is scheduled to happen after the intensive 2-level courses. This year, we plan to focus on the ankle and foot joint, one of the most complicated joints that requires multidisciplinary approach from specialists. The highlight of this course being specialized training in small groups by internationally acclaimed trainers. It is guaranteed to give you deep knowledge and hands-on experience in the subject.

The course is endorsed by EULAR, and European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB). Participants will also gain International CPD credits.

Our aim is to ensure that our participants will gain an optimum knowledge and confidence in practicing standardized MSK US.
