EXPERT Virtual, Web-based ultrasound training
RATIONALE: The management of Cervical Dystonia requires experience and skills in a range of practical aspects. To ensure safe usage and optimal treatment response with botulinum toxin therapy, target structures must be correctly localized and injected. Also, the right muscles for the corresponding pattern need to be identified. The objective of this meeting is to foster the use of ultrasound as a guiding technique for injections and help to identify muscles for prominent pattern. Ideally, the acquired knowledge will lead to an improvement in patient care.
