Prerequisites: Completion of Module I, II, III, and IV courses with a “C” or better and concurrent enrollment with all Module V UT didactic and laboratory courses. Students will scan normal MSK anatomy and acquire the skills and techniques to present normal structures with ultrasound. Basic sonography knowledge and skills will be presented at two levels, “Introduction” and “Review.” This will enrich the students’ scanning skills in preparing for the externship.
