SUMMARY:Vascular Ultrasound Interpretation
DESCRIPTION:Program Name: Vascular Ultrasound Interpretation, March 20
 11\n\nStart Date: 03/03/2011\nEnd Date: 03/04/2011\n\nAMA Cat. 1 CME C
 redits: 17\nOther CME Credits:\n\nAdvanced Registration: $1,395.00\nRe
 gular Registration: $1,435.00\n\nLocation: Gulfcoast Ultrasound Instit
 ute, Inc.\nAddress: 4615 Gulf Blvd. Ste 205\nSt. Pete Beach, FL 33706\
 n\nThe Advanced Registration fee is honored if payment is made/postmar
 ked 21 days or more prior to the beginning date of the program.\n\nCou
 rse Objectives:\nAt the completion of this program, the participant sh
 ould be able to:\n\n• Discuss Doppler/Color physics, factors affecti
 ng optimal Doppler examinations and commonly seen Doppler/Color artifa
 cts, which may affect diagnostic accuracy.\n• Explain routine scan p
 rotocols and analyze normal spectral waveform signatures, color charac
 teristics, and Doppler measurements in a normal carotid and peripheral
  vascular examinations.\n• Recognize abnormal spectral Doppler and C
 olor Doppler findings seen with carotid and peripheral arterial and ve
 nous disease.\n• Discuss the role of indirect testing in the evaluat
 ion of lower extremity arterial disease.\n• Apply diagnostic criteri
 a for evaluation of carotid, peripheral venous and arterial disease.\n
 • Review complex carotid and peripheral vascular case studies in int
 eractive interpretation session format.\n• Describe ultrasound findi
 ngs associated with aortic endograft leaks.\n• Describe normal and a
 bnormal spectral Doppler characteristics and diagnostic criteria assoc
 iated with renal artery evaluation and dialysis access graft evaluatio
 n.\n• Increase knowledge and confidence to perform and/or interpret 
 vascular ultrasound examinations.\n• Apply the information discussed
  in a clinical setting, ideally under supervised conditions until an a
 cceptable level of proficiency has been achieved.\n\nCourse Topics:\nâ
 €¢ Doppler color overview/diagnostic pitfalls\n• Normal waveforms/sc
 an protocol\n• IMT assessment\n• Overview of abnormal waveform - c
 haracteristics and diagnostic criteria\n• How to structure a report\
 n• Lunch Session: Dialysis Access Graft Evaluation\n• Complex case
 s studies\n• Interpretation sessions, interactive format\n• Indire
 ct testing overview and case studies\n• Lunch Session: Renal Artery 
 Evaluation\n• Lower extremity arterial duplex\n• Arterial interpre
 tation sessions, narrative and interactive (combination of indirect an
 d duplex cases)\n• U/S evaluation post intervention\n• Aortic endo
 graft evaluation\n• Venous pathology overview/cases\n• Hands-on se
 ssions\n\nWho Can Attend?\n\nPhysicians with a minimum of 6 months exp
 erience interpreting carotid and peripheral vascular duplex/color exam
 inations. Physician participants may include (but are not limited to) 
 those involved with internal medicine, cardiology, radiology, and gene
 ral/vascular surgery. Sonographers who are proficient at performing va
 scular duplex/color examinations may also attend this program. Those w
 /o experience and who have attended GUI’s carotid and PV courses may
  inquire about attending.\n\nFaculty:\n\nRobert G. Atnip, MD, RVT, RPV
 I\nDennis Bandyk, MD\nMarsha J. Neumyer, BS, RVT\n\nThe Gulfcoast Ultr
 asound Institute is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Contin
 uing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for phy
 sicians.\n\nThe Gulfcoast Ultrasound Institute designates this educati
 onal activity for a maximum of 17.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)â„¢. P
 hysicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of the
 ir participation in the activity.\n\nThis course also meets CME/CEU re
 quirements for ARDMS. Note: While offering the CME credit hours noted 
 above, activities are not intended to provide extensive training or ce
 rtification for exam performance or interpretation.\n\nFor more inform
