Program
This course is designed for clinicians who wish to acquire basic skills in ultrasound of the abdomen and a general overview of Ultrasound in Tropical Medicine. Imaging specialists who want to acquire knowledge in the field of Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine can benefit from this course as well. It is also designed for MDs who plan to work in tropical/resource poor areas or who are already experienced in field work but need to refine their skills in this diagnostic tool.
Enrico Brunetti, MD
The course consists of lectures and hands-on sessions.
Rosie Conlon, MD
Practical sessions consist of an explanation of the scanner’s ”knobology”, that is how to operate the scanner’s console in order to obtain an optimal image, having the trainee perform the scans under the tutor’s supervision and having the trainee locate the organs and the anatomical landmarks and describe them. During this process, the ultrasound images are discussed in their relationship with the organs that are being imaged.
Emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases that used to be virtually unknown to physicians in industrialized countries are now increasingly encountered because of immigration from endemic countries. The course can be of help to those clinicians working in industrialized countries who frequently take care of those groups.
