DMSU 288 — Introduction to Abdominal and Cardiac Sonography Lab
In this course, students will learn the proper scan techniques, measurement, and spectral Doppler applications involved in cardiac and abdominal vasculature sonography. This includes the assessment techniques for transthoracic echocardiograms, physics, anatomy and physiology review, and an introduction to how to accurately perform the basic principles of motion mode, two-dimensional, and spectral Doppler examinations of the adult heart and abdominal vasculature. This laboratory course applies technical ultrasonic skills to the topics and concepts covered in the Introduction to Abdominal and Cardiac Sonography course.
