Frequently Asked Questions
01 Who Is This For?
AMSKU is built for orthopedic and musculoskeletal specialists who want to practice MSK ultrasound at the highest level—not just use it occasionally.
It's ideal for physicians, PAs, NPs, and other orthopedic-focused providers who want to become more confident diagnosing MSK conditions, improve procedural precision, reduce reliance on outside imaging, and integrate ultrasound more deeply into their practice.
Especially a fit for providers who are:
- Building or expanding a regenerative medicine practice
- Looking to improve diagnostic confidence and independence
- Wanting more hands-on training and mentorship
- Preparing for the RMSK
- Interested in increasing cash-pay services and revenue
02 How We Do It
We combine world-class hands-on training, structured online education, and ongoing mentorship to help providers build real clinical confidence with MSK ultrasound.
Rather than relying on one-off weekend courses with large trainer to trainee ratios, our Residency Program is designed around repetition, feedback, and progressive skill development so you can actually apply what you learn in practice.
Our training includes:
- Hands-on scanning in small-group settings in Mesa, AZ
- A structured online academy and scanning curriculum
- Weekly case reviews and ongoing professional collaboration
- Monthly virtual 1-on-1 coaching training
- RMSK preparation
- Real-world application focused on diagnostic and procedural mastery
03 What If I Have No Ultrasound Experience?
The program meets you where you are. Whether you’re starting from scratch or building on prior training, the curriculum takes you from fundamentals to mastery.
04 Can physical therapists claim AMA PRA Category 1 CME credits?
Generally, yes. If the education is relevant to PT scope of practice, AMA PRA Category 1 Credits are typically accepted for PT continuing education across most of the United States.
Always check with your local licensing board to confirm

Program Feedback

Brianne Showman
Enhanced Clinical Skills
"You can explain something, but actually being able to show them on an image is really powerful. This is what's actually going on."

Michael Blanco
Clinical Confidence
"You're going to get your money's worth. You'll go from a beginner level to feeling very comfortable and experienced using ultrasound."

Rubin Isaac
Real World Application
"If I could do it all again, I would learn MSK ultrasound way earlier in my career. As a clinician, it's a game changer."

Mike Roncarati
Practice Changing Skills
"Your clinical exam doesn't always tell you what's going on under the hood. Ultrasound has allowed us to make better clinical decisions on the spot."

About Our Founders
AMSKU was founded by two clinicians who believed there had to be a better way to get patients the answers they needed. Their search led them to MSK ultrasound—and then to another problem: learning to scan was only half the battle. Clinicians needed a better way to develop the judgment, confidence, and real-world integration to actually use it.
So Colin and Ryan built the training they wished they'd had: structured, hands-on, mentorship-driven, and built for real clinical practice.
Colin Rigney PT, DPT, OCS, RMSK
Board-certified orthopedic specialist and RMSK-certified clinician. Colin leads curriculum and hands-on instruction, helping clinicians turn complex anatomy and pathology into confident clinical decisions.
Ryan Martin PT, DPT, RMSK
Co-founder and lead instructor. Ryan focuses on real-world integration—helping clinicians bring diagnostic ultrasound into their workflow, clinical reasoning, and patient conversations.
Our mission: Raise the standard of MSK ultrasound education so clinicians can move beyond simply learning to scan—and become confident diagnostic authorities for the patients and communities they serve.
