This week was filled with Ultrasound pearls, starting with our guest lecture from Dr. Avila (5minutesono) on ocular ultrasound. We then covered how and when to perform musculoskeletal ultrasound with Dr. Broadstock, and witnessed a battle of wits between Dr. Urbanowicz and Dr. Minges over a case of uremic pericarditis. Dr. Humphries then showed us how to perform a flawless consultation, and several residents presented interesting learning points from the recent ACEP conference in Denver. Finally, Dr. Gray gave us a thorough review on the pearls and pitfalls of pediatric sedation.

Dr. Broadstock gives us a look at some of the applications you need to make yourself a better practitioner in this week’s Diagnostics of Musculoskeletal US post.
