2023 Clinical Ultrasound - A CME Teaching Activity

This CME activity is structured as a practical, clinically focused review of diagnostic ultrasound. A mix of ob-gyn, abdominal, vascular and small parts lectures provide a well-rounded review of common clinical ultrasound procedures. Topics are presented in a case-based approach providing updated AIUM recommendations, protocol optimization, tips, and pitfalls.

This course is designed to educate those who order, perform, and interpret clinical ultrasound studies. It should be particularly valuable for diagnostic imaging physicians, ob-gyn physicians, vascular surgeons, and referring physicians who utilize ultrasound to evaluate the clinical status of their patients.
