 EETING DESCRIPTION:\nVascular Ultrasound Vascular ultrasound has progr
 essed over the years to become much more than a screening tool. From i
 ts early beginnings of grainy black and white two dimensional images, 
 to the addition of Doppler and color flow, it has become the modality 
 of choice for early detection of peripheral arterial, cerebrovascular,
  and venous disease. For the detection of DVT and venous reflux, duple
 x testing is now the gold standard other modalities are compared to. A
 ccurate diagnostic testing of the vascular system requires a comprehen
 sive understanding of anatomy and hemodynamics as well as the various 
 pathological conditions that can present. Multiple variables such as c
 ardiac output, dehydration, and infection can all have an impact on th
 e vascular system. This five day seminar provides a comprehensive over
 view of physics and instrumentation, anatomy and hemodynamics, and dia
 gnostic criteria suitable for anyone from an experienced sonographer t
 o the beginner. For the physician wanting a more thorough understandin
 g of the capabilities and potential of the vascular lab, along with in
 terpretative criteria, our extensive library of case studies will prov
 e invaluable. Our scan lab and state of the art equipment, along with 
 our low student instructor ratios allow you plenty of time to perfect 
 your protocol, and acquire the scanning experience necessary to perfor
 m diagnostic vascular exams. Objectives At the completion of this cour
 se, the learner will be able to: • Correctly identify vessel anatomy
  and orientation in a vascular ultrasound examination. • Identify th
 e variations in instrumentation and Doppler principles and the effects
  in scanning parameters. • Describe the flow characteristics and the
  manifestations of disease processes. • Discuss QA of the procedure 
 and equipment. • Analyze the results of a vascular exam for patholog
 ical conditions and in certain cases, quantify the diseases. • Ident
 ify additional resource information on vascular ultrasound. Course Top
 ics Day one of this five day seminar starts with an overview of the ph
 ysical principles of ultrasound including Doppler and color flow, foll
 owed by a comprehensive review of the ultrasound platform controls ena
 bling you to optimize your system for even the most difficult patient.
  After lunch you will be introduced to our scan lab with state of the 
 art equipment platforms and low student instructor ratios where you wi
 ll learn the specific controls for each of the platforms on the floor,
  basic scanning techniques, and patient positioning. Day two starts ca
 rotid duplex testing. This includes anatomy, hemodynamics, diagnostic 
 criteria, case studies, pearls and pitfalls, as well as standardized r
 eporting. After lunch you will again be in the scan lab working on pro
 tocols, technique, and documentation of your studies. Day three starts
  arterial duplex testing. Again anatomy, hemodynamics, and diagnostic 
 criteria will be covered as well as case studies, pearls and pitfalls,
  and standardized reporting. After lunch it’s back to the scan lab t
 o continue working on protocols, technique, and documentation of your 
 studies.\n\nINSTRUCTORS:\nWhelan\n\nCME HOURS: 40\n\nLECTURE TOPICS:\n
