Virtual Medical Academy

Overview

This recorded lecture of mine is in purpose of explaining what’s ultrasound Sonography. The lecture will focus on educating sonographers/technicians or radiologist on the main elements that would assist them to obtain the proper diagnostic image using the ultrasound modality as far as how to communicate with their patients.

Ultrasound machine is known to have whole bunch of buttons, so this lecture would be guiding the audience to what to focus on. It will let them be able to describe findings in terms of echogenicities and be able to pick the proper transducer for each particular study.
