Certificate in Vascular Ultrasound - Vascular Ultrasound DMUT 4010   Vascular Ultrasound
CREDIT HOURS: 3
This course builds on knowledge and experience gained in DMUT 2020 (Principles and Instrumentation of Diagnostic Medical Ultrasound II) and DMUT 2000/2030 (Sonography of the Abdomen/Superficial Structures III). An integration of previously acquired knowledge and clinical skills will be applied to a more advanced level of theoretical and clinical application using Doppler ultrasound technology, including discussion of pathologic findings related to the vascular system. The student will review hemodynamics, physics and instrumentation, spectral analysis, color flow imaging and the use of contrast agents in vascular sonography. Applications in both vascular sonography as well as non-imaging physiologic assessments will be covered, to include: examinations of the intracranial and extracranial cerebral vessels, arteries and veins of the upper and lower extremities and vasculature of the abdominal and pelvic vessels.
