Education and training

Become proficient and confident with point-of-care ultrasound

Point-of-care ultrasound and injection therapy are operator dependent. UltraVision offers several teaching routes so physicians, assistants and sonographers can develop the skills these exams require: a mobile learning solution, in-office training by MSK experts, and workshops.

Mobile learning

mskNAV

Developed by Dr. Cliff Gronseth, mskNAV is a modern mobile learning solution for ultrasound: all six major joint modules (shoulder, elbow, hand and wrist, hip, knee, foot and ankle), an injections module add-on, and eligibility for AMA PRA Category 1 CME credits. Fully mobile, works offline, delivered on an iPad with built-in anatomy and image labeling for patient education.
