AIM OF THE WORKSHOP
FACULTY
The role of US in peripheral nerve imaging giving basic
instructions on how to visualize the main neural structures. There
will be a theoretical session, a live demo and ‘hands on’ session
with a tutor.
Peripheral neural structures are not easy to visualize due to
small dimensions and coarse variability; nevertheless, by means of
the new High frequency probes it’s possible to evaluate structures
which were almost invisible in the past.
Because of the growing interest of different medical fields
(neuro-logist, neurophysiologist, ortho-pedics, traumatologist,
pain thera-pist) this workshop aims at invol-ving the different
imaging experts in this diagnostic area (radiologist, US
specialists). Formation of multidisciplinary teams (clinical/
imaging) will give better results.
Imaging in fact allows the evalua-tion of many different aspects
of the region studied, besides the
specific clinical area of interest, and allows for integration
with other diagnostic methods facilita-ting diagnosis and
therapeutic choice precision.
A part from the technical aspects of peripheral nerve study,
this course purpose is to compare the different
planning\organization criteria which could help the
inter-disciplinary relationship between the clinician and the
radiologist.

SIMULATION IN EDUCATION
The Center has 3 high-fidelity simulation rooms, 2 for medium
and low-fidelity simulation, 4 multifunction rooms, 3 control
rooms, 1 physiotherapy laboratory and a wet lab entirely set up and
equipped with all the technologies and equipment needed for
educational activities in the medical-surgical field and for the
study of anatomy. There are also 3 distinct plenary rooms with
capacities ranging from 25 to 45 seats and an Auditorium that can
comfortably seat from 150 to 240 people, as well as various smaller
rooms for debriefings and meetings. All simulation rooms, wet lab,
plenary rooms and the Auditorium are equipped with modern
audio-video systems and may be connected to each other, to ensure
the maximum interactivity between the various work
environments.
