Assesses beliefs about musculoskeletal ultrasound in health students, suggesting a need for improved education.
Abstract This study assessed baseline knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes regarding musculoskeletal ultrasound among Doctor of Physical Therapy and Doctor of Nursing Practice students. Eighty-nine participants completed program-specific surveys. DPT students exhibited higher baseline knowledge, whereas DNP students demonstrated significant gains during clinical internships. Across both groups, interest in MSK-US was strong and the perceived diagnostic value high, despite minimal formal curricular exposure. These findings support development of integrated ultrasound education across health professions.
