Practical Abdominal Ultrasound One-Day Fast-Track

This highly practical one-day masterclass will give you the confidence to perform diagnostic abdominal ultrasound on a variety of cases in general practice.

With comprehensive online pre-learning videos, you'll be able to familiarise yourself with the theory you are expected to know ahead of the course. The day will then be spent largely in practical sessions to maximise hands-on imaging of the abdomen, learning how to recognise what is normal and classify any abnormalities noted.

Topics to be covered include:

• The ultrasound machine - how to use the machine to its best effect
• Introduction to the basics of abdominal ultrasound
• Useful measurements to take, how to take them and what they mean
• Familiarising yourself with the normal, in order to recognise the abnormal
• Hands-on imaging of the liver, gallbladder, spleen, GI tract and urogenital tract

As we aim to keep group numbers small and the course is solely practical, we would ask delegates to bring along an appropriate dog to scan so that we can scan a broad range of cases and give the dogs plenty of time out as needed.

**Delegates who attend with a suitable dog(s) will receive a financial incentive. After completing your booking, please contact us at enquiries@centralcpd.co.uk to confirm your intention to bring a dog.**
