3.00 Credits
This course is a continuance of OB/GYN Sonography designed to familiarize the students with the pathophysiology of the female reproductive pelvic scanning protocol will also be discussed and sonographic interpretation will be utilized in the labs. Normal and abnormal obstetrical patterns will be taught, and emphasis is placed on recognizing the essential sonographic appearance when doing an obstetrical exam in 2nd and 3rd trimester. Chromosomal and congenital anomalies are discussed and the importance of the differential diagnosis. Level II and high risk OB ultrasound are presented. Pathological and/or physiological data for the interpretation by physicians is stressed. The sonographic criteria for evaluation of the gravid uterus, postpartum uterus and the fetus will be demonstrated. Lecture [2.00], Laboratory [3.00].
Prerequisite:
Prerequisite[s]: BIO-209, DMS-205, DMS-219. Corequisite[s]: DMS-214, DMS-220.

3.00 Credits
This course is a continuance of Echocardiography, explaining the normal anatomy and physiology of the adult heart. A more in-depth analysis of the physiology/hemodynamics of the heart chambers and muscles are emphasized. Doppler flow patterns and sonographic evaluation of the abnormal heart will be stressed. New techniques as an adjunct tool to Echocardiography will be discussed. Students will perform a complete echo exam in lab in preparation for Vascular Practicum IV. Cardiac measurements of the chambers and muscles will be covered. Lecture [2.00], Laboratory [3.00].
Prerequisite:
Prerequisite[s]: DMS-226, DMS-229. Corequisite[s]: DMS-221, DMS-228.
-
1.00 Credits
This course is designed to explore new specialty techniques in the areas of Abdomen, Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Echocardiography. Intraoperative procedures will be discussed in all specialties. Specialized equipment will also be emphasized. The course will also focus on legal and ethical issues in sonography. Review of case presentations will be discussed. Independent learning assignments and various lecture formats will enhance the course. Journal articles will be introduced. Neurosonography will be stressed to include normal and abnormal sonographic findings. Laboratory [3.00].
Prerequisite:
Prerequisite[s]: DMS-226, DMS- 229. Corequisite[s]: DMS-221, DMS-227.

2.00 Credits
This course introduces the use of diagnostic imaging with the use of Doppler for examining the vasculature of the human body. In this class the student will learn about diseases that affect the circulatory system. The course provides a history of diagnosis and treatment of vascular conditions. In addition, the course gives the student an awareness of alternative diagnostic tools used in conjunction with ultrasound. The student will learn how to perform vascular tests commonly performed in vascular laboratories and develop an awareness of tests that are routinely performed. Lecture [1.00], Laboratory [3.00].
Prerequisite:
Prerequisite[s]: BIO-209, DMS-201, DMS-213. Corequisite[s]: DMS-214, DMS-220.

3.00 Credits
This course will review specialty areas pertinent to sonography in preparation for the ARDMS exam. Emphasis will be placed on ultrasound physics, general and cardiac concentrations. Upon completion of the program, students are eligible to take the ARDMS exams in Abdomen, Ob/Gyn, and Adult Echocardiography. The matrix of ARDMS exams for Abdomen, Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Adult Echocardiography will be followed. Seventy percent of the matrix on all specialties will be reviewed. The remaining 30% will be presented in the program courses specifically focused on the specialties mentioned. Students are required to pass the exit examination in all three specialties as a requirement for program eligibility to take the ARDMS exams. Lecture [3.00].
Prerequisite:
Prerequisite[s]: DMS- 227, DMS-228. Corequisite[s]: DMS-222. ENGLISH BASIC SKILLS
-
5.00 Credits
This course is the first part of a two-course basic skills sequence designed to improve fundamental academic skills in the areas of reading, writing, and critical thinking. Class instruction emphasizes the development of writing skills, literal and interpretive comprehension of reading texts, sentence structure, grammar and punctuation, and vocabulary. At least 50 minutes per week of this five-hour course meets in a computer lab where there is opportunity for individualized instruction. Lecture [5.00].
