Join Dr Donald Resnick and colleagues in this 4-part, in-depth musculoskeletal radiology series on MR imaging and assessment of synovial joints.
This series of MSK lectures and case reviews will provide radiologists with a practical overview of the use of MR imaging and MR arthrography in the assessment of synovial joints with a focus on the most common articular disorders and those internal derangements that are encountered daily in clinical practice.
You will get an in-depth understanding of the various types of human articulations and, with regard to synovial joints, the many diverse structures contained within them. Additionally, Dr. Resnick and his co-presenters will walk through effective search patterns and how to distinguish between normal variations and pathologic abnormalities.
Topics covered in this course:
- Manifestations and types of rheumatoid arthritis and the spondyloarthropathies
- Common imaging features of crystal-induced arthropathies
- Pathology and diagnosis of septic arthritis
- Radiographic features of osteoarthrosis
- Causes and pathogenesis of neuropathic osteoarthropathy (charcot joint)
- Silastic-induced synovitis
- …and more!
What your colleagues liked about this series:
- “Good combo of didactic presentation (basic science/clinical) as well as cases.”
- “Deeply impressed by the diligence.”
- “Great lessons! It will help me in my practice.”

After completing this course, you will be better able to:
- Accurately assess MR images in patients with articular disorders and internal derangements
- Describe the anatomic features of human articulations, the structures contained within them, and the abnormalities associated with specific articular disorders
- Detail diagnostic findings and differential diagnostic considerations for a wide variety of particular disorders, especially in synovial joints, that are encountered daily in clinical practices employing MR imaging
- Accurately identify and communicate those findings that require the immediate attention of the referring physician
- Recommend the appropriate application of standard MR imaging and MR arthrography to the assessment of common and uncommon disorders and derangements of synovial joints
