 n Description:Vascular ultrasound has progressed over the years to bec
 ome much more than a screening tool. From its early beginnings of grai
 ny black and white two dimensional images, to the addition of Doppler 
 and color flow, it has become the modality of choice for early detecti
 on of peripheral arterial, cerebrovascular, and venous disease. For th
 e detection of DVT and venous reflux, duplex testing is now the gold s
 tandard other modalities are compared to. Accurate diagnostic testing 
 of the vascular system requires a comprehensive understanding of anato
 my and hemodynamics as well as the various pathological conditions tha
 t can present. Multiple variables such as cardiac output, dehydration,
  and infection can all have an impact on the vascular system. This fiv
 e-day seminar provides a comprehensive overview of physics and instrum
 entation, anatomy and hemodynamics, and diagnostic criteria suitable f
 or anyone from an experienced sonographer to the beginner. For the phy
 sician wanting a more thorough understanding of the capabilities and p
 otential of the vascular lab, along with interpretative criteria, our 
 extensive library of case studies will prove 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 perform diagnostic vascular exams
 .\nObjectives At the completion of this course, the learner will be ab
 le to: â€¢ Correctly identify vessel anatomy and orientation in a vasc
 ular ultrasound examination. â€¢ Identify the variations in instrument
 ation and Doppler principles and the effects in scanning parameters. â
 €¢ Describe the flow characteristics and the manifestations of disease
  processes. â€¢ Discuss QA of the procedure and equipment. â€¢ Analyze
  the results of a vascular exam for pathological conditions and in cer
 tain cases, quantify the diseases. â€¢ Identify additional resource in
 formation on vascular ultrasound.\n\nSelf Assessment Module (SAM): No\
