About the Course
The Ultrasound Crash Course for Facial and Musculoskeletal Ultrasonography Evaluation (FUSE & MUSE) provides comprehensive training in both facial and musculoskeletal ultrasound techniques. Beginning with the basics, participants will learn essential ultrasound physics, anatomy, and operation settings to master ultrasound imaging. The course emphasizes the importance of FUSE, covering detailed modules such as forehead, mid-face, and lower-face anatomy, including critical neurovascular bundles, arteries, and potential complications.
The FUSE component delves into specific zones such as the forehead’s glabellar and temporal areas and their associated neurovascular structures, utilizing vein viewers and ultrasound for precision. Mid-face modules highlight vital structures like the zygoma, maxillary zones, nasolabial fold, and nose region, focusing on arteries, nerves, and anatomical layers.
The Lower Face Modules explore facial arteries, mental NVB, and relevant glandular structures, ensuring thorough knowledge of facial neuroanatomy and safe procedural approaches.
In the MUSE section, the course focuses on musculoskeletal evaluation of the trapezius and gastrocsoleus muscles, detailing anatomy, surrounding structures, and specific injection techniques. This ultrasound crash course is tailored to equip practitioners with the skills needed for successful evaluation and intervention in both the facial and musculoskeletal contexts.
