Every minute lost can be a life lost. When you need ultrasound and there is no time to waste; it is not the time to “learn on the job”. Be better able to visualize ultrasound images by boosting your understanding of imaging perspectives and recognition of anatomical orientation. Having the sk ills to perform focused evaluation of the abdomen, ultrasound evaluati on of the trauma patient (the FAST procedure), 1st trimester pregnancy and cardiac ultrasound scans may make the difference! Participants in this course will benefit from “hands-on scan labs” where you will interact with an Emergency Medicine Physician who will teach you the essential skill and technique to acquire an ultrasound image to make a quick and accurate diagnosis.\n\nAdvanced Health Education Center, Lt d. has taught this course for physicians in the US, China, and South A merica for a number of years. The course content is based on the ACEP guidelines for the performance on Emergency Medicine Ultrasound and th e course faculty are Emergency Department physicians and RDMS, RVT, RD CS sonographers.\n\nCourse Topics\n• Introduction to Ultrasound Phys ics\n~ Fundamentals of Instrumentation and Image Acquisition\n~ Pearls and Pitfalls in Trauma Ultrasound\n• Anatomy of the Abdominal and R etroperitoneal structures\n~ Abdominal Scan Protocols and Pathology\n Abdominal Trauma, the FAST exam procedure\n• Cardiac 2 D Imaging in the ED\n~ Ultrasound Evaluation of Pericardial Effusion\n~ OB/GYN U ltrasound Anatomy and Procedures\n• Evaluation of 1st Trimester Preg nancy with endovaginal imaging\n~ Ultrasound Appearance of Early Gesta tion and Ectopic Pregnancy\n• Ultrasound Appearance of Pathology in case studies\n• Focused Hands-on Scan Labs with Physician Mentoring\ n\nINSTRUCTORS:\nWhelan\n\nCME HOURS: 24\n\nLECTURE TOPICS:\nnot liste d\n\nFor more information visit https://community.radrounds.com/events /introduction-to-emergency DTSTART:20100121T050000Z DTEND:20100124T045900Z CATEGORIES:introduction, to, emergency, medicine, ultrasound LOCATION:Advanced Health Education Center WEBSITE:http://www.aheconline.com URL:http://www.aheconline.com CONTACT:713-772-0157 ORGANIZER:Advanced Health Education Center ATTACH;FMTTYPE="image/jpeg": ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="radRound s Radiology Events":https://community.radrounds.com/profile/radRoundsR adiologyEvents END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
