With three tracks running concurrently, participants can jump tracks based on their individual needs. For example, start in the insonate track to scan the middle cerebral artery and then bounce to the innovate track and learn the latest technology in teaching ultrasound. Then one could move to the integrate track to find out about best practices in leveraging ultrasound in the clinical clerkships. We realize that everyone’s needs are different and the beauty of this conference is that you can attend the workshops that would benefit you and your institution!
Not only will the latest technology in portable ultrasound will be explored but the latest advancements in ultrasound simulation and other technology in teaching ultrasound including curation, free open access medicine (FOAM) ultrasound, artificial intelligence, 3D printing, ultrasound portfolios, tele-ultrasound, virtual reality, oculus ultrasound, do it yourself phantoms.
Learn how to speak to curriculum deans using their language of Entrustable Professional Activities (EPA’s) and create ultrasound milestones. The latest subject matter experts will how they asses ultrasound proficiency leveraging ultrasound objective structured clinical exam (uOSCE) and ultrasound portfolios. Integrating ultrasound throughout the longitudinal four year curriculum faces challenges at each benchmark. Learn from the experts about how they overcame pitfalls and successfully integrated ultrasound in the preclinical years!
Harness the power of ultrasound by putting probe to patient and experience first-hand why students are so excited to about this portable technology. Scanning patients proctored by experts in the field will show you a wide array of sonographic anatomy and physiology. Starting at the head by looking at the eyes, vasculature of the brain, and moving down to the sole of the foot. Put yourself in the driver seat and test the entire gamut from handheld portable to cart based machines!
