DMSD 2251 — - Vascular Ultrasound II
This course provides an in-depth of vascular ultrasound including pathophysiology, etiology of disease clinical findings and related symptoms. Age-specific testing is discussed. Related testing for cerebrovascular, upper and lower extremity venous circulation is covered. Scanning techniques and protocols are discussed in normal and abnormal conditions. Bio-effects, ALARA principle, pertinent in- vitro studies, exposure display indices, and maximum safe exposure levels will be incorporated into the didactic and laboratory classes. Laboratory experience will include further development of entry to mid- level scanning techniques and protocol on the cerebrovascular, upper and lower extremity venous circulation. Students will demonstrate the ability to perform entry to mid-level sonographic examinations using real- time sonographic equipment, Doppler and color Doppler equipment with various transducers.
