Introduction to Ultrasound Investigation. Physics
Radu Badea
Practical aspects using ultrasound technique. Equipments, Radu Badea
adjustments. Ultrasound imaging – how to obtain and optimise
Sono-anatomy: soft tissues (muscle, tendons, arteries, veins, nerves),
Daniela Fodor
bones, liquid, air
Structural and functional elements of peripheral nerves. Clinical Adela Hilda Onutu
implications
Coffee break
Applications of peripheral nerve blocks in regional anesthesia and pain Adrian Grunfeld
therapy of the upper limb
Ultrasound and classical approach of the brachial plexus and peripheral Adrian Grunfeld
nerves of the upper limb: the brachial plexus (interscalenic, Adela Hilda Onutu
supraclavicular, subclavian, axillary)
Nerves approach: median, cubital, radial, musculocutaneous

Practical application
(ecomodels and phantoms examination)
Objectives:
Obtaining the image of anatomical elements, viewing the needle (in-plane
and out-of-plane), recognition of vascular (vein, artery) and nerve (plexus,
nerve) elements
Visualization and recognition on ecomodels all nerve elements described in
the theoretical part (interscalenic .... peripheral nerves in the wrist) and
adjacent anatomical elements. Each participant will recognize all structures
