NCT ID NCT06845969
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a hands-on anatomy review using cadavers can help physiotherapists place dry needling needles more accurately and safely. Sixty licensed physiotherapists will be split into two groups: one gets a cadaver anatomy class, the other gets online education not related to anatomy. Researchers will measure needle placement accuracy and distance from risky areas like lungs before and after training.
