Ultrasound training
Early in their careers, students learn to use this powerful and portable technology to look beneath the surface in real time.
Ultrasound training
Our physicians and scientists are leading the way in incorporating ultrasound into the curriculum, encouraging ultrasound use at the patient’s bedside and finding new applications for the technology — such as institution-led research that is accelerating the diagnosis of fetal heart problems.
In addition, our researchers are developing training models and educational methodologies to prepare students to effectively use this emerging and evolving technology.
