Inside this resource
Core rheumatology — RA, lupus, and vasculitis
Rheumatoid arthritis therapy, RA epidemiology with extra-articular manifestations, systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, and vasculitis form the backbone of the live lectures. Each condition is addressed through both pathophysiology and the latest evidence for treatment optimization.
Spondyloarthritis, crystal disease, and myositis
Axial spondyloarthritis with IBD and reactive arthritis is covered alongside psoriatic arthritis, while crystal disease and myositis with its mimics round out the inflammatory arthritis sessions. Autoinflammatory diseases receive dedicated attention, reflecting their growing importance in rheumatology practice.
Sports medicine and orthopedic topics
Two dedicated sports medicine sessions address soft tissue injuries, nerve entrapments, and board-relevant anatomy of the ankle, elbow, and wrist — topics that frequently appear on the ABIM exam and in everyday rheumatology practice.
Imaging, special populations, and self-assessment
Interpretation of imaging studies, pediatric rheumatology, medication safety, osteoporosis prevention and treatment, and autoimmune lung disease are covered in dedicated sessions. Five answer key question sets provide self-assessment practice aligned with board exam content.
Who this serves
- Rheumatologists preparing for ABIM boards — the three-day format mirrors the exam content outline with focused sessions on each major disease area
- Practicing rheumatologists — seeking a structured clinical update on diagnostic accuracy, treatment optimization, and newly approved therapies
- Family medicine and primary care physicians — who manage rheumatology patients and need practical guidance on pain control and disease recognition
- Allied health professionals — looking for a comprehensive overview of current rheumatology practice from a top academic center

S. Patel –
Good value for a comprehensive three-day program. The pre-recorded sessions on biologics and crystal disease were especially well done. Download was straightforward.
R. Chen –
Solid program. The vasculitis and SLE sessions were thorough. I’d have liked a bit more on pediatric rheumatology but the pediatric session that’s there covers the essentials.
Linda P. –
Used this alongside the 2025 UCSF edition for my boards and both were excellent. The self-assessment answer keys in this 2024 version are genuinely useful for practice.
Mark D. –
The sports medicine sessions were a game changer for my practice. Soft tissue injuries and nerve entrapments come up constantly and these lectures gave me a much better framework.
A. Thompson –
Excellent for recertification. The imaging interpretation session and quick clinical cases format were particularly helpful for thinking through real-world diagnostic scenarios.
Jennifer L. –
Content is great but the file sizes are large — 14.2 GB. Make sure you have storage space before downloading. The lectures themselves are well-produced.
