The course was well attended, and supported both by the faculty and industry. It covered intermediate and advanced arthroscopic skills' training using a series of practical lectures and demonstrations, followed by hands on training using Alex models and the virtual reality simulator. It received excellent feedback from the participants. All in all, a resounding success. A similar course is planned for the last week of Jan 2009 (dates to be confirmed).
Once again, great success for the Reading shoulder course.
