Carotid Ultrasound Imaging Course 2023

Carotid Ultrasound Imaging Course is organized by Wessex Diagnostic (WD) and will be held on Jun 17, 2023 at The Royal Society of Medicine, London, England, United Kingdom.

Description:
This one-day course introduces participants to applying B-scan and duplex ultrasound imaging techniques and pulsed wave, color, and power Doppler imaging techniques to investigate extracranial and intracranial vasculature. As part of this course, several 'hands-on' workshops will allow the delegates to practice the investigation protocols using the latest ultrasound imaging equipment.

Topics include:

• Basic principles of imaging;
• Haemodynamics and Doppler techniques;
• Investigating protocols and diagnostic criteria for carotid and vertebral arteries
• Investigation of the intracranial arteries using colour duplex and transcranial Doppler (TCD)
• Post endarterectomy imaging;
• B-scan and Doppler artefacts and errors.

Structure:
Theoretical discussions are supplemented with a hands-on, practical workshop that members of our most eminent professors lead. For teaching purposes in ultrasound monitoring endovenous laser ablation treatments, various models and ultrasound systems and the possibility of employing a limb phantom are available to the student.
