MSc International Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Imaging

We understand that you may not have time for a full-time degree, so our CPD pathways allow you to study flexibly in the way that best suits you. The structure, mode of delivery, and level of support allow you to progress towards a qualification at postgraduate certificate, postgraduate diploma, or Masters level. This pathway supports clinicians from a range of professional backgrounds to access musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging. You engage with the technical considerations that underpin this imaging modality prior to musculoskeletal scanning protocols. Face-to-face teaching takes place at weekends at our Colchester Campus. You will require a mentor to complete the clinical learning components of the MSc. The pathway includes optional modules covering ultrasound-guided injections or service evaluation.
