Special Pre-Conference Seminar
Bedside Ultrasound for the Emergency MD
"Outstanding... Best of the best. I don't know how you could make it better."
--Mike Dehuff, MD, Shawnee, OK
The American College of Emergency Physicians has endorsed the performance of ultrasound by emergency physicians and it is now a standard part of the core curriculum for emergency medicine residents. This intensive "hands-on/how-to" seminar utilizes a series of didactic, workshop and small group sessions to accomplish one goal - to prepare you to perform and to interpret bedside ultrasonography.

- Prepare an ultrasound machine for use
