A two day course covering principles of ultrasound physics, scanner technology, scanning protocols, evidence based scanning and hands on practice
The course is run by faculty from Imperial College London and the authors of the forthcoming ‘Manual of Vascular Ultrasound’.
There will be demonstrations on how to perform scans as well as extensive opportunities to practice scanning over a full practical day.
