[EN]Taking self-learning or e-learning as a model and by the
application of new technologies, we introduce the software
application of an echograph simulator, a very useful tool to
nurture knowledge and training of the health professionals,
integrating the images taken during echograph exploration with
the anatomical knowledge, key for the the infiltration of the
botulinum toxin in the treatment context or when addressing
spasticity.
The application of this echograph simulator allows us to
virtually explore muscular groups both of the upper and lower
limb, as well as point out the best spots where the correct and
precise infiltration of the toxin in the spastic muscle can be
done, identifying the structures seen in the echograph.
Illustrations of sectioned anatomy taken from nuclear magnetic
resonance (RMN) images of the common regions for echo guided infiltration are included, where the different anatomic
structures that comprise them are highlighted.
The main objective is to introduce a training tool for the doctor,
in order to get a better knowledge grade and better practical
skills in the infiltration of the botulinum toxin when dealing
with spasticity.
