 469\n\nMEETING DESCRIPTION:\nAbdominal Ultrasound The Art and Science 
 of abdominal ultrasound require a complete and thorough understanding 
 of the knowledge and clinical skills needed to perform these important
  clinical procedures. This dynamic training course uses an integrated 
 approach of lecture, demonstrations, and hands-on scanning experience 
 with models to accomplish those training goals in a comprehensive five
  day program. Advanced Health Education Center training model for skil
 ls classes follows a systematic approach of presenting a concise revie
 w of ultrasound physics and instrumentation followed by a sequential i
 ntroduction of the abdominal systems with anatomy and vasculature. Cas
 e studies and ultrasound images are used to demonstrate the correlatio
 n of ultrasound appearance of normal versus abnormal tissues. The afte
 rnoon hands on scanning labs reinforce the knowledge acquired in the l
 ecture setting with the necessary clinical skills to acquire and maxim
 ize a diagnostic image. By the conclusion of the training course parti
 cipants have acquired the knowledge and skill required to a complete u
 pper abdomen and small parts protocol. A variety of ultrasound equipme
 nt is available in the scan lab. A complete two-week program can be ac
 complished with this course followed by the five day OB/GYN Ultrasound
  course. Objectives At the completion of this course, the learner will
  be able to: • Utilize the principles of instrumentation to set up u
 ltrasound equipment for scanning. • Recognize and identify the organ
  systems of the abdomen on an ultrasound image. • Perform basic ultr
 asound procedures on the abdomen patient. • Understand and identify 
 pathological variants and their influence in the ultrasound procedure.
  • Follow the sequence of an abdominal ultrasound procedure from the
  beginning to its conclusion. Course Topics • Ultrasound Physics and
  Instrumentation • Upper Abdominal Organ Systems Anatomy and Vascula
 ture Evaluation and Image Review of Normal vs. Abnormal Studies Scan T
