Hands-on Lower Limb Regenerative Medicine Training Course
This course is tailored for medical practitioners seeking a foundational understanding of musculoskeletal ultrasound across the foot, ankle, knee and hip, both for diagnostic imaging and for guiding orthobiologic injections. Delegates will become familiar with the standard anatomical nomenclature, learn to delineate relevant structures and to localise them under realtime ultrasound guidance. By establishing this core competence in ultrasound imaging, attendees will be fully prepared to progress to imageguided needle techniques for the lower limb.
Participants can anticipate a blended learning experience: comprehensive theoretical modules and demonstrative video content delivered via a selfpaced online platform, complemented by live, handson sessions with patients, progressing to inplane and outofplane needle approaches for precise orthobiological injection. By fostering a supportive learning environment and under supervision, delegates will practise diagnostic scanning, ultrasoundguided injection methods and perform patient assessments, ensuring proficiency in managing lower limb conditions.

Ultrasound-Guided Injection
- Principles of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound: Utilising ultrasound for musculoskeletal interventions requires proficiency in machine settings, probe manipulation, and image interpretation. Detailed knowledge of ultrasound physics, tissue characteristics (e.g., echogenicity), and artefacts (e.g., reverberation, shadowing) ensures accurate diagnosis and precise needle placement.
- Proper Handling and Positioning: Optimal probe handling and patient positioning are critical for obtaining high-quality ultrasound images. Techniques such as dynamic scanning and multiplanar assessment enhance diagnostic accuracy and procedural success.
- Needle Guidance: Real-time needle guidance allows for precise localisation and delivery of therapeutic substances into targeted anatomical structures. This minimises procedural complications and maximises therapeutic efficacy.
Manual Injection Techniques
Landmark Identification: Proficiency in identifying anatomical landmarks facilitates safe and effective manual injections, particularly in settings where ultrasound guidance may be limited or unavailable. Mastery of palpation techniques and knowledge of surface anatomy enhance procedural efficiency and patient safety.

What You Will Learn
1. Anatomy, pathology and imaging
2. Live patients
3. Injection techniques for knee and hip joints, ligaments, tendons, cartilage
4. Management of tendon injuries
5. Foot and ankle disorders and treatments
6. Biologic agents used in lower limb regenerative medicine
7. Identifying conditions amenable to treatment of osteoarthritis,tendonitis, and ligament injuries.
8. Safety protocols and patient outcomes assessment
9. Theoretical Foundation
- Lower Limb, Hip, Knees, Ankle, and Foot Anatomy and Physiology: Understanding the intricate anatomical structures and physiological functions of the lower limb is essential for diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal conditions. This includes detailed knowledge of the skeletal framework, musculature, vascular supply, and nerve innervation specific to each region.
- Knee Joint: The knee joint is a complex hinge joint pivotal in weight-bearing and mobility. An in-depth examination includes the anatomy of the femur, tibia, and patella, as well as the intricate network of ligaments crucial for stability. Detailed analysis of tendons and articular cartilage provides insights into common pathologies such as osteoarthritis and tendonitis.
- Hip Joint Structures: Examination of the hip joint involves studying the acetabulum, a deep socket in the pelvic bone that accommodates the femoral head. Understanding the biomechanics and surrounding tissues is crucial for diagnosing conditions like hip dysplasia and femoroacetabular impingement.
- Conditions Amenable to Treatment: Identifying and assessing musculoskeletal conditions such as osteoarthritis, tendonitis, and ligament injuries are fundamental in determining appropriate treatment modalities. This includes understanding the pathological processes,
clinical manifestations, and evidence-based interventions ranging from conservative management to surgical options
