SUMMARY:Intro to Venous Imaging and Ultrasound Evaluation for Vein The
 rapy
DESCRIPTION:Program Name: Intro to Venous Imaging and Ultrasound Evalu
 ation for Vein Therapy -- January 2011\nStart Date: 01/27/2011\nEnd Da
 te: 01/28/2011\nAMA Cat. 1 CME Credits: 16.0\nOther CME Credits:\nAdva
 nced Registration: $1,425.00\nRegular Registration: $1,465.00\nLocatio
 n: Gulfcoast Ultrasound Institute, Inc.\nAddress: 4615 Gulf Blvd. Ste 
 205\nSt. Pete Beach, FL 33706\n\nThe Advanced Registration fee is hono
 red if payment is made/postmarked 21 days or more prior to the beginni
 ng date of the program.\n\nCourse Objectives:\n\nAt the completion of 
 this program, the participant should be able to:\n\n1. Identify the an
 atomy/physiology of the upper & lower extremity venous systems.\n2. Di
 scuss Doppler/color physics and be able to (sonographers) apply these 
 principles to optimize system controls or (physicians) utilize this in
 formation for recognizing technical errors which may result in misdiag
 nosis.\n3. Perform routine scan protocols, and document Doppler wavefo
 rms for venous evaluation of the lower extremity including pre and pos
 t vein ablation evaluation.\n4. Identify normal/abnormal spectral Dopp
 ler/color characteristics and waveform characteristics for identifying
  venous disease.\n5. Recognize image characteristics of acute versus c
 hronic DVT.\n6. Discuss the use of Ultrasound- Guidance and its role i
 n the treatment of venous insufficiency.\n7. Perform evaluation for ve
 nous insufficiency to determine suitability for vein therapy treatment
  and to determine patency of perforators.\n8. State the diagnostic cri
 teria for identifying significant venous insufficiency.\n9. Increase t
 he participants’ knowledge to better perform and/or interpret lower 
 extremity venous evaluation for vein closure procedures.\n10. Apply th
 e information discussed in a clinical setting, under supervised condit
 ions until an accepted level of proficiency has been achieved.\n\nCour
 se Topics:\n\n• Doppler fundamentals\n• Venous anatomy/scan techni
 ques and normal characteristics\n• Evaluation of venous pathology\nâ
 €¢ Live demo: evaluation for DVT and venous insufficiency\n• Upper e
 xtremity venous evaluation\n• Saphenous vein mapping\n• U/S evalua
 tion for pre and post vein ablation therapy\n• Venous insufficiency 
 and perforator evaluation\n• Hands-on sessions\n\nWho Can Attend?\n\
 nSonographers, physicians, PAs and other medical professionals who are
  at an entry level of performing venous exams for eval. of DVT & pre &
  post U/S eval. for vein ablation procedures. Physician may include (b
 ut are not limited to) internists, cardiologists, radiologists and gen
 eral/vascular surgeons.\n\nFaculty:\n\nPhil Bendick, PhD., RVT\nDirect

 sultant; accepting honorariums from Gulfcoast Ultrasound Institute, In
 c.\nNo relevant financial relationships to disclose\n\nDoreen Saltiel,
  MD, FACC, RPVI\nPresident\nTotal Vein Care\nFort Smith, AR\n\nThe Gul
 fcoast Ultrasound Institute is accredited by the Accreditation Council
  for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical educat
 ion for physicians.\n\nThe Gulfcoast Ultrasound Institute designates t
 his educational activity for a maximum of 16.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Cred
 it(s)â„¢. Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the ex
 tent of their participation in the activity.\n\nThis course also meets
  CME/CEU requirements for ARDMS. Note: While offering the CME credit h
 ours noted above, activities are not intended to provide extensive tra
 ining or certification for exam performance or interpretation.\n\nFor
