Continued Medical Education

The Metatarsophalangeal Joint Injection & Aspiration: Procedure Module provides an in-depth understanding of the basic principles of how to perform ultrasound-guided metatarsophalangeal joint injection and/or aspiration. The course reviews relevant anatomy and commonly agreed-upon clinical indications for performing the procedure. Optimal transducer selection, patient positioning, imaging approaches, and techniques for sonographically evaluating the first through fifth metatarsophalangeal joints are discussed. The course concludes with imaging tips and pitfalls, and potential procedure complications.
