Provides basic knowledge of general vascular evaluation with an emphasis on the sonographic approach. Two-dimensional real-time imaging and Doppler techniques are presented as well as a discussion of other imaging modalities and their use in vascular evaluation. Performance of examinations on laboratory equipment is stressed. This is an internship course. (Fourth year in the ultrasound program or permission of faculty) Class 4, Credit 4 (S)
-
3.00 Credits
This course exposes the student to the role of the electrocardiogram in clinical medicine and its correlation with the echocardiographic examination. The student learns how to perform a 12 Lead electrocardiogram and interpret a normal EKG. Abnormal EKG morphology, conduction disturbances, and rhythms are taught. Implications of abnormalities are discussed. (First year in the ultrasound program or permission of instructor) Class 3, Credit 3 (W)

3.00 Credits
This course is designed to provide the echocardiography student with the necessary foundation of knowledge and understanding to deal with the patient in a clinical context. It also provides the student with the information necessary to perform basic and sophisticated cardiac procedures utilizing 2-D imaging, M-mode, spectral and color Doppler. High-quality image production, recognition of normal cardiac structures and pathologic states relating to various types of cardiomyopathy and cardiac transplantation are stressed. Examination protocols for various procedures, review of anatomy, fi lm reading and use of other scanning techniques and modalities are addressed. This is an internship course. (Second year in the ultrasound program or permission of instructor) Class 3, Credit 3 (F) *X, extended day (after 5 p.m.)

This is an internship course. (Second year in the ultrasound program or permission of instructor) Class 2, Credit 2 (F)
-
2.00 Credits
Classroom and laboratory experience will provide the candidate with basic knowledge necessary to perform M-mode scans. High quality image production, measurements, recognition of normal structures and basic pathologic states will be stressed. Examination protocols, review of specifi c anatomy, fi lm reading, and use of other scanning techniques will be addressed. This is an internship course. (Second year in the ultrasound program or permission of instructor) Class 2, Credit 2 (F)
-
7.00 Credits
This course prepares the student for application of classroom knowledge to the practice of ultrasound by means of a clinical internship. The course is designed to equip the student with the practical skills and clinical knowledge necessary to perform basic echocardiography examinations. Image production, recognition, and acceptability are stressed; examination protocols are outlined. Nursing procedures, ethical issues and medico-legal considerations also are discussed as they relate to the practice of echocardiography examination. Instruction also includes review of teaching fi les and discussion of new techniques and research trends. This is an internship course.
