This teaching activity offers a comprehensive review of recent developments and issues in noninvasive vascular imaging. Faculty discuss state-of-the-art ultrasound and Doppler techniques used to evaluate the abdominal and peripheral arterial and venous vascular systems. In addition, diagnostic pearls and pitfalls, associated with non-invasive vascular imaging are discussed. Faculty have been chosen for their expertise and outstanding teaching abilities.
This activity is intended and designed to offer educational opportunities to radiologists, vascular surgeons, cardiologists, sonographers and other clinicians interested in learning more about noninvasive vascular ultrasound.
Educational Symposia
