SUMMARY:Abdominal Ultrasound (4 Day)
DESCRIPTION:The focus of this four day course is to provide participan
 ts with the confidence necessary to complete an abdominal ultrasound b
 ased on AIUM protocols. The course covers the basic protocols involved
  in an examination and general use of the ultrasound system. Normal an
 atomy of the liver, gall bladder, kidneys, spleen, abdominal vessels, 
 and pancreas will be discussed. Also included are soft tissue applicat
 ions and abdominal doppler.\nThe first three days the participants wil
 l gain experience through lecture and faculty supervised hands on scan
 ning. This format allows each participant ample opportunity to gain th
 e knowledge and confidence needed to independently perform a basic abd
 ominal ultrasound. The final day of this course will be spent entirely
  in the scanning lab. We will simulate a clinical lab setting with liv
 e models allowing participants to perfect their protocols.\nA complete
  two-week program can be accomplished with this course followed by the
  five day OB/GYN Ultrasound course.\nScan with the experts:\nSometimes
  it takes an additional day or two of scanning to generate confidence 
 in your new skill set. If you would like to add a day or two, all our 
 ultrasound skills courses can be scheduled with additional scan days i
 n our state of the art interactive scan lab. Give us a call and discus
 s your needs with our faculty so we can help you achieve your goals.\n
