Overview

The Brown rheumatology fellowship program is one of the first rheumatology fellowship programs in the country to incorporate musculoskeletal ultrasound(MSKUS)into the curriculum and training. Our fellows learn diagnostic and ultrasound-guided procedures in both the inpatient and outpatient setting to assist with early diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal pain and rheumatic diseases. A lecture series covering various topics pertaining to MSKUS has been incorporated into the curriculum.
