 & Topics\nAt the completion of this program, the participant should be
  able to:\n\n1. Discuss Doppler/Color physics, factors affecting optim
 al Doppler examinations and commonly seen Doppler/Color artifacts, whi
 ch may affect diagnostic accuracy.\n2. Explain routine scan protocols 
 and analyze normal spectral waveform signatures, color characteristics
 , and Doppler measurements in a normal carotid and peripheral vascular
  examinations.\n3. Recognize abnormal spectral Doppler and Color Doppl
 er findings seen with carotid and peripheral arterial and venous disea
 se.\n4. Discuss the role of indirect testing in the evaluation of lowe
 r extremity arterial disease.\n5. Apply diagnostic criteria for evalua
 tion of carotid, peripheral venous and arterial disease.\n6. Review co
 mplex carotid and peripheral vascular case studies in interactive inte
 rpretation session format.\n7. Describe ultrasound findings associated
  with aortic endograft leaks.\n8. Describe normal and abnormal spectra
 l Doppler characteristics and diagnostic criteria associated with rena
 l artery evaluation and dialysis access graft evaluation.\n9. Increase
  knowledge and confidence to perform and/or interpret vascular ultraso
 und examinations.\n10. Apply the information discussed in a clinical s
 etting, ideally under supervised conditions until an acceptable level 
 of proficiency has been achieved.\n\nCourse Topics:\n\n• Doppler col
