SUMMARY:Vascular: Reading & Reporting the Carotid & Vertebral Artery D
 uplex Ultrasound Exam
DESCRIPTION:OVERVIEW \nBeginning in 2014, the Vascular Surgery Board 
 of the American Board of Surgery will require all physicians applying 
 for the Vascular Surgery Qualifying Exam to hold the RPVI credential. 
  \nMore errors in ultrasound diagnosis are made in the carotid duplex
  exam than any other during the first two years of practice.  This co
 urse will eliminate them all in one day.  From the physician perspect
 ive you'll be able to quickly identify the universe of operator errors
  that dramatically skew diagnostic accuracy.  \nYour instructor has t
 he longest consecutive history with duplex cerebrovascular imaging in 
 history; he'll make your classroom experience uncommonly effective and
  interesting.  Together you will build the rapid, accurate, and clini
 cally grounded matrix for complete data analysis and reporting.\nYou'l
 l return completely prepared to begin.  \nThere is no deeper preparat
 ion for cerebrovascular content on the RPVI Exam.\n\nOBJECTIVES\nThis 
 course is conducted independent of any commercial or institutional gra
 nt, industry support or sponsorship.  No faculty members have any com
 mercial interests or participation that might influence its content. Â
  Upon completion of this activity, you should be able to:\n\n \n\n- I
 dentify and correct or compensate for even the most subtle artifacts a
 nd operator errors to avoid misinterpretation f the data.\n\n\n \n\n-
  Classify hemodynamic data by multidimensional Doppler signal analysis
  to identify focal, proximal, and distal carotid vascular disease. \n
 \n\n \n\n- Validate carotid IMT measurement and stratify its recogniz
 ed importance in estimating global CV risk.\n\n\n \n\n- Identify, cla
 ssify, and communicate morphologic findings of atherosclerotic plaque 
 using standardized terms for location, degree, and composition.\n\n\nÂ
  \n\n- Apply the principles of flow direction, S/D ratio, RI, PI, and 
 acceleration/deceleration phenomena to the transtemrporal TCD waveform
 .\n\n\n \n\n- Establish a continuous feedback channel with sonographe
 r staff to maintain and refine quality care.\n\n\n\n\n\nFor more infor
