  • 1. Chondro-osseous border
  • 2. Femoral head
  • 3. Synovial fold
  • 4. Joint capsule
  • 5. Labrum
  • 6. Hyaline cartilage roof

  • 8. Turning point (concavity to convexity)
    		•
    10.15 - 10.30 AM WORKSHOP 2 – USABILITY CHECK
  • Group practice on few slides for checklist 1 and 2

  • Learning points: Checklist 2
  • Lower limb
  • Plane
  • Labarum
    		•
    10.30 – 10.45 AM SCANNING DEMONSTRATION

  • If centred – type 1 or 2; if decentred – type 3 or 4
  • Usability check, Description – no measurement at this stage
  • Discuss the exception to the usability checklist – In a decentred joint, the lower limb may not be visible.
  • Explain? (They are in different planes)
  • Checklist I first – because if it is a decentred joint, even if the plane is incorrect or the lower limb is not visible, you may still have a diagnosis
  • Learning points:
  • Type I – Mature
  • Type II – Hip centred – less bony cover
  • Type III – Decentred – Cartilage pushed up
  • Type IV – Decentred – Cartilage pushed down
    		•
