4.00 Credits
This course introduces detailed normal anatomy in various planes used during sonographic examinations. Information is weighted toward normal structures that are sonographically visible. Structures are described according to relative location and proportionality. Anatomy is identified in both cadaver and sonographic modes. Structures include the brain (especially the proportions and structures of the neonate), neck, chest, abdomen, pelvis, and extremities. Emphasis is placed on sonographically identifying normal cross section anatomy based on echogenicity, the position of other relative anatomy and proportionality of size. Topics include normal sectional anatomy of the neck: vascular and thyroid normal sectional anatomy of the adult chest normal sectional anatomy of the abdomen in adults, pediatric and fetuses normal sectional anatomy of the male and female pelvis and normal sectional anatomy of the extremities: muscles and vasculature. Prerequisite: Program admission
