Ultrasound Universe

Prior to diving into the deep end of vascular imaging, we must first understand the basic ultrasound concepts. Basic ultrasound concepts entail a general overview of the ultrasound system then a more focused lens on individual ultrasound system functions. Furthermore, we will learn how to set up our ultrasound environment. Once our ultrasound environment is prepared, we will review orientation, transducer ergonomics, transducer manipulation, and basic knobology. Then we proceed to learn advanced ultrasound concepts. These concepts entail image optimization via B-mode, color Doppler, and spectral Doppler, which will enable us to have full diagnostic confidence during image aquisition.
