Description:
At this annual three day ultrasound meeting, faculty will cover first trimester anomalies as well as the most common anomalies diagnosed today with ultrasound in the second and third trimesters. A particular focus on prenatal diagnosis of congenital heart disease for screeners will be given by cardiac specialists. You’ll also learn the basics in assessing pregnancies at risk for morbidly adherent placenta (accreta spectrum) since it is now 1:200 pregnancies. Gynecological ultrasound will include ultrasound of endometrium, pelvic pain and pelvic floor. A live scanning segment will show tips on obtaining cardiac and outflow tracts (with color Doppler) as well as tips on scanning brain anatomy, the lower uterine segment and getting optimal doppler images.
Target audience: Physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurse midwives, nurses, sonographers and radiologic technologists who work in a clinical practice setting using maternal-fetal ultrasound for diagnosis and screening
Course Objectives Upon completion of this conference, the participant will be able to:
Demonstrate how to perform an optimal fetal cardiac and anatomical exam by watching live scanning by a sonographer
Differentiate abnormally developing early pregnancies from normal based on sonographic correlation of anatomic findings
Perform a basic obstetrical ultrasound examination, fulfilling the requirements set forth by the ACOG, ACR, and AIUM for a first trimester scan
Identify the ultrasound appearance of common and interesting fetal genitourinary anomalies
Incorporate current practice guidelines in cardiac evaluation
Look for clues in evaluating ventricles to recognize normal and abnormal fetal brain diseases
Describe definition of adherent placenta spectrum, risk factors, image acquisition and image interpretation
Optimize resolution and evaluation of the fetal heart during the anatomy scan
Update on state-of-the-art practices in prenatal genetic screening for aneuploidies
Recognize the classic ultrasound findings of ectopic pregnancy as well as ectopic pregnancies in unusual location
Understand the legal ramifications of performing obstetrical ultrasound and implement safeguards to mitigate your risk
Discover the advantages of ultrasound for evaluating the female pelvis for non-pregnant gynecological emergencies
Discuss common sonographic findings of female pelvic pain when evaluating pelvic problems including ovarian torsion and common gastrointestinal and vascular causes of pelvic pain
Learn practical applications of ultrasound in evaluating pelvic floor
