SUMMARY:Vascular Ultrasound Interpretation, December 2011
DESCRIPTION:New! Case Log Provided!\nFor our St. Pete Beach, FL partic
 ipants: Approximately 50-60 cases will be reviewed during this course.
  Participants will be given a log of exams read. The case load will he
 lp if preparing to take the RPVI exam. The narrative and interactive s
 essions will strengthen interpretation skills, assist in qualifying fo
 r credentialing/reading privileges and help meet ICAVL lab accreditati
 on requirements.\nFree Lunch Workshops\nFirst Day: Dialysis Access Gra
 ft EvaluationSecond Day: Renal Artery DopplerWorkshops include box lun
 ch.\nAt the completion of this program, the participant should be able
  to:\n\nDiscuss Doppler/Color physics, factors affecting optimal Doppl
 er examinations and commonly seen Doppler/Color artifacts, which may a
 ffect diagnostic accuracy.\nExplain routine scan protocols and analyze
  normal spectral waveform signatures, color characteristics, and Doppl
 er measurements in a normal carotid and peripheral vascular examinatio
 ns.\nRecognize abnormal spectral Doppler and Color Doppler findings se
 en with carotid and peripheral arterial and venous disease.\nDiscuss t
 he role of indirect testing in the evaluation of lower extremity arter
 ial disease.\nApply diagnostic criteria for evaluation of carotid, per
 ipheral venous and arterial disease.\nReview complex carotid and perip
 heral vascular case studies in interactive interpretation session form
 at.\nDescribe ultrasound findings associated with aortic endograft lea
 ks.\nDescribe normal and abnormal spectral Doppler characteristics and
  diagnostic criteria associated with renal artery evaluation and dialy
 sis access graft evaluation.\nIncrease knowledge and confidence to per
 form and/or interpret vascular ultrasound examinations.\nApply the inf
 ormation discussed in a clinical setting, ideally under supervised con
 ditions until an acceptable level of proficiency has been achieved.\n\
 nCourse Topics:\n\nDoppler color overview/diagnostic pitfalls\nNormal 
 waveforms/scan protocol\nIMT assessment\nOverview of abnormal waveform
  - characteristics and diagnostic criteria\nHow to structure a report\
