 ACTICE OF VASCULAR ULTRASOUND, each participant will:\n\n- Integrate D
 oppler waveform analysis into the interpretation of vascular studies\n
 - Recognize the pathologic characteristics of abnormal blood flow patt
 erns\n- Apply the diagnostic criteria for carotid artery disease\n- Op
 timize the color Doppler and pulsed wave Doppler technical parameters 
 form improved diagnostic accuracy\n- Establish protocols for reliable 
 and consistent performance of carotid artery Doppler examinations\n- R
 ecognize and avoid pitfalls of the carotid Doppler examination\n- Reco
 gnize the technical needs for integrating carotid IMT into their clini
 cal practice\n- Diagnose complex and unusual cerebrovascular pathologi
 es\n- Compare the diagnostic accuracy of Doppler ultrasound to MRI and
  CT angiography\n- Achieve improved patient outcomes through vascular 
 ultrasound practice\n- Distinguish normal from abnormal venous wavefor
 ms\n- Diagnose and evaluate the significance of venous insufficiency\n
 - Appropriately integrate ultrasound with CT and MRI in the diagnostic
  workup of thromboembolic disease understand the diagnostic strategies
  used to identify patients in need of anticoagulation be able to apply
  the ACCP guidelines for early anticoagulation integrate the value of 
 diagnostic testing with therapy in patients with suspected deep vein t
 hrombosis\n- Apply specific Doppler criteria in the diagnosis of perip
 heral arterial disease\n- Apply ultrasound to the diagnosis and monito
 ring of abdominal aortic aneurysms\n- Describe the appropriate use of 
 thrombin for the treatment of pseudo-aneurysms\n- Define the role of u
 ltrasound in the follow up to bypass surgery and stent placement\n- Id
 entify and characterize renal artery stenosis\n- Integrate vascular ul
 trasound to the evaluation of the abdominal vessels\n- Define the role
  of Doppler ultrasound in gynecological applications\n- Achieve improv
 ed patient outcomes through vascular ultrasound practice\n\n\nINSTRUCT
