Thankyou for visiting Version 2.0 of Shoulder e-WorkSheet

This application is designed to enable sonographers to generate a digital ulrasound worksheet for ultrasound of the shoulder">

This Application is intended for use in both clinical and educational settings. An experienced MSK Sonographer may use it to generate a text document or PDF file as a substitute for the Sonographers worksheet. For Sonographers with less musculoskeletal ultrasound experience, simply clicking through the App and becoming familiar with the terminology, may provide an accelerated pathway to producing a higher quality worksheet. The educational component of the App will be expanded in future updates.

While using this App, please keep in mind that it is based on the minimum protocol followed in one particular clinical setting, and that protocols and procedures may be different in your clinical setting. Also be aware that while this App does cover a wide range of typical pathology, it makes no claim to being comprehensive, and may not be appropriate to use in all instances. It is likely that the generated text will require editing. This is best done inside the browser, by clicking anywhere within the worksheet text.

Before using this application, please see the Get Started and Disclaimer sections which are accessed from the top navigation bar.

I hope you find the initial version of this App useful. Any Feedback is welcome, please contact the Developer with any comments, questions or requests for future updates.

SonoApps and Shoulder e-WorkSheet is developed by Nik Mann.

Nik is an Accredited Medical Sonographer(AMS), and Front-End Web Developer, based in Brisbane, Australia.

This project was initially undertaken to provide an avenue for standardisation of protocols and terminology in performing and reporting findings for Ultrasound Examinations of the Shoulder in a single clinical setting. Subsequently, that vision has extended to that which is now described on the SonoApps homepage. Further planning has begun to expand this initial version to include more educational content, and to implement additional templates for other musculoskeletal and general ultrasound applications.

Please contact the Developer for further information.

Shoulder e-WorkSheet is designed specifically for use by Accredited Medical Sonographers and are only suitable for use by qualified health professionals.

The text generated by e-worksheet does not represent a medical report. e-WorkSheet is a tool that may assist in the generation of an Ultrasound Worksheet, provided that the links used to generate the text are an accurate description of the pathology imaged on ultrasound examination. While using the application, it is important that sonographers and other medical professionals adhere to all relevant privacy and confidentiality policies.

When used in a clinical setting, it is the responsibility of the sonographer or medical professional who uses this application to ensure that any generated text is an accurate description of the ultrasound findings. Any inaccuracies or errors should be edited before the text is saved into any third-party display, or Radiology Information System. Generated text should always be confirmed for accuracy before being submitted to a reporting clinician.

The developer takes no responsibility for any errors in the reporting of ultrasound examinations that may arise from the misuse of this application.
