Pediatric Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Lecture Series: Tumors Encountered in Sports and General Practice
OverviewMusculoskeletal tumors and tumor-like conditions are uncommon but clinically important to recognize so that patients receive appropriate evaluation, imaging, and specialized care when indicated. This activity will review how to integrate clinical and radiographic findings to develop differential diagnoses for bone tumors, identify common tumors that occur in joints and their associated symptoms, prognosis, and treatment, and evaluate soft tissue masses to determine when advanced imaging is appropriate.
RegistrationRegistration is required.
