BASEM have produced a set of SEM-focused MSK injury resources aimed at students and junior clinician level with the overall goal of engaging more juniors in the specialty of SEM and improving knowledge. For students and junior clinicians that are interested in SEM there are limited opportunities available to learn more about the speciality. It is currently difficult to find resources specifically made for this group, hence the creation of these resources.

We requested help from BASEM members to create these resources. Many thanks to all those that contributed to them. In particular, I’d like to thank Dr Aksha Ramaesh for creating images used in the resources, and to Professor Lennard Funk for giving BASEM permission to use several images from his website (https://www.shoulderdoc.co.uk/). Please note all images used in the resources follow copyright law and cannot be used for other purposes.
