About This Activity

This activity is structured to address a wide range of topics common to most Ultrasound practices. It focuses on advanced techniques and applications used in general, GU, OB/GYN, Vascular and Interventional procedures. The faculty emphasize updates in image optimization, contrast enhanced applications, head and neck, GU, OB/GYN and interventional procedures while sharing tips on how to acquire the most accurate data. Extensive case review sessions round out the program. 

Target Audience 

This CME activity is designed to educate radiologists, fellows, residents and sonographers. It should also be of benefit to those physicians who order sonographic studies. 

Educational Objectives

Review sonographic findings that can be easily misinterpreted or measured incorrectly and provide strategies for improved patient care.

  • Discuss emergent sonographic findings of ultrasound abnormalities throughout the body.
  • Discuss the most effective uses of contrast enhanced ultrasound in the performance of diagnostic and interventional procedures.
  • Recognize the various uses of ultrasound. No special educational preparation is required for this CME activity.
