Image Guided-Therapy

Objectives


The goal of this course is to provide attendees with a good understanding of the technology of US. We will cover the theoretical, technical and practical formation of US.

In this course experts will present to attendees different applications of US in abdominal pathology that the clinicians encounter in their daily practice.

The course will focus on learning US physics, image acquisition, sonoanatomy, examination technique, US findings in normal and pathologic conditions of abdominal organs.

The hands-on training is the cornerstone of the program. During this one week session participants will be guided to perform bedside scans on volunteers or patients with normal or pathologic findings. 

PHYSICS PRINCIPLES

This course begins with preliminary theoretical lessons that cover a broad range of ultrasound physics. We present the importance of understanding the physical basis and instrumentation of sonography.
