The incursion of technologies applied to medicine has recently led to an increase in the number of interventions performed by means of surgeries navigated with mixed reality, bioresorbable implants or general improvements in osteosynthesis materials. A boost to Pediatric Orthopedics, which, in turn, starts from a knowledge base of the entire locomotor system of the child.
In addition to treatment itself, advances in diagnosis, on which professionals in the field are constantly working, continue to be key. An early and adequate detection of certain pathologies favors child recovery, which is also undergoing full development. That is why more and more specialists are demanding to renew their knowledge in the field. This professional master’s degree is born in this context, where physicians will delve into radial longitudinal deficiency of the upper limb, Embryology, anatomy and biomechanics of the hip, Osgood-Schlatter disease or the staging of musculoskeletal tumors.
The multimedia didactic material provided by TECH on all its programs, will allow professionals to access advanced knowledge through video summaries, detailed videos, interactive diagrams and clinical case simulations. All this, with the main objective that students acquire up-to-date knowledge in the field.
What is more, professionals are offered higher education in a convenient and flexible format.
