Description:
If you are a technologist or sonographer who has set your goal on mastering the physics portion of the board exams, this course is designed for you! In order to become registered by the ARDMS (American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography) to operate medical ultrasound devices, individuals will need to take the Ultrasound Physics and Instrumentation (UPI) Test. This exam was developed by the ARDMS. A similar set of specified questions are asked on the registry examinations given by Cardiovascular Credentialing International, and the ARRT for certification in sonography. Our experienced faculty will guide you through a review of the important areas of physics and instrumentation that is in the specifications for these examinations. You will have the opportunity throughout the day to ask questions, and relieve those pre-registry jitters with a thorough dose of quality information.
