SUMMARY:Carotid Duplex Ultrasound
DESCRIPTION:Vascular ultrasound has progressed over the years to becom
 e much more than a screening tool. From its early beginnings of grainy
  black and white two dimensional images, to the addition of Doppler an
 d color flow, it has become the modality of choice for early detection
  of peripheral arterial, cerebrovascular, and venous disease. For the 
 detection of DVT and venous reflux, duplex testing is now the gold sta
 ndard other modalities are compared to. Accurate diagnostic testing of
  the vascular system requires a comprehensive understanding of anatomy
  and hemodynamics as well as the various pathological conditions that 
 can present. Multiple variables such as cardiac output, dehydration, a
 nd infection can all have an impact on the vascular system.\nThis two-
 day seminar provides an overview of physics and instrumentation, anato
 my and hemodynamics, and diagnostic criteria suitable for anyone from 
 an experienced sonographer to the beginner. For the physician wanting 
 a more thorough understanding of the capabilities and potential of the
  vascular lab, along with interpretative criteria, our extensive libra
 ry of case studies will prove invaluable. Our scan lab and state of th
 e art equipment, along with our low student instructor ratios allow yo
 u plenty of time to perfect your protocol, and acquire the scanning ex
 perience necessary to perform diagnostic vascular exams.\n*This course
  can be taken individually as a two (2) day course OR part of the Vasc
 ular Ultrasound seven (7) day course.\nObjectives At the completion of
  this course, the learner will be able to:\n\nCorrectly identify vesse
 l anatomy and orientation in a vascular ultrasound examination.\nIdent
 ify the variations in instrumentation and Doppler principles and the e
 ffects in scanning parameters.\nDescribe the flow characteristics and 
 the manifestations of disease processes.\nDiscuss QA of the procedure 
 and equipment.\nAnalyze the results of a vascular exam for pathologica
 l conditions and in certain cases, quantify the diseases.\nIdentify ad
 ditional resource information on vascular ultrasound.\n\nCourse Topics
 \n\nDay one of this two day seminar starts with an overview of the phy
 sical principles of ultrasound including Doppler and color flow, follo
 wed by a comprehensive review of the ultrasound platform controls enab
 ling you to optimize your system for even the most difficult patient. 
 After lunch you will be introduced to our scan lab with state of the a
 rt equipment platforms and low student instructor ratios where you wil
 l learn the specific controls for each of the platforms on the floor, 
 basic scanning techniques, and patient positioning.\nDay two starts ca
 rotid duplex testing. This includes anatomy, hemodynamics, diagnostic 
 criteria, case studies, pearls and pitfalls, as well as standardized r
 eporting. After lunch you will again be in the scan lab working on pro
 tocols, technique, and documentation of your studies.\n\n*This course 
 can be taken as a two day course, or as days 1 – 2 of the seven day 
 Vascular Ultrasound course.\nTarget Audience Physicians who desire ent
 ry level training with vascular ultrasound, and sonographers or other 
 health care professionals learning vascular ultrasound or cross traini
 ng.\n\n\nFor more information visit https://community.radrounds.com/ev
