A SENSIBLE UPGRADE FOR JUST ABOUT ANY PHYSICIAN’S OFFICE
"... it's pretty much a no-brainer for every health practice to have ultrasound scanning capability as part of their patient diagnostic protocols. As a surgeon, I am thoroughly confident in the advantages of PREOP & POST-OP scanning. It's portable, fast responding and highly accurate… providing true peace-of-mind to both doctor and patient. From a busy ICU to a private dermatology practice, having a portable scanner in your pocket or in the office could become a standard tool, much the same as the stethoscope!" - DR. STEPHEN CHAGARES, Board-certified breast surgeon (Tinton Falls, NJ)
COURSE WORK
The design of this program is geared to establishing the essential STARTER phase for any scan operator or patient support team about how to use your ultrasound application including the probes included. Where all medical practices differ in patient services, this course supports the many benefits and advantages of Point of Care Ultrasound for acquiring fast, accurate and real-time data gathering of your patient's current condition.
Once you register, you and your team will undergo a short Q/A about your practice and your needs. Once your trainer has gathered a complete 'picture' on what you aim to achieve with your in-house POCUS studio, you shall receive a custom breakdown of your lesson plan and your training session shall begin. Here is a standard course program:
- Lesson #1: Understanding YOUR Ultrasound
- THE TRANSDUCER / PROBE (how to use)
- THE APPLICATION: Software and Hardware
- QUANTIFIABLE DATA: Creating & Managing Files
- INTERPRETATION WORKSHOP: A comprehensive review on how to read a scan
COST EFFECTIVE IMAGING ADVANCEMENT
Today’s portable ultrasound technology is fast becoming the preferred diagnostic add-on for medical practices everywhere. It is made completely affordable for just about any office budget, flexible for a wide set of scanning options and is designed for maximum file sharing and storage for easy web collaboration. Newer models are even cloud-based, allowing to transmit the digital files globally via real-time WIFI. Dr. Bard’s virtual radiology partnerships with remote physicians have been used widely to support the treatment of patients in real-time, from any location without missing a beat.
ACCURATE READINGS = MAJOR RISK REDUCTION
Many routine scanning protocols can easily determine the patient's risk level prior to a surgical procedure. Pre-operative imaging is often recommended to verify tissue planes and measure fat depth. DIGITAL PRE-OP is a highly useful prep stage for any medical procedure, preventing potential problems within certain patients who could carry hidden complex issues. Oftentimes, patients may have forgotten prior treatments. A new scan can reveal extensive sub-dermal calcium deposition, unsuspected fluid collections or thick fibrosis distorting the expected anatomy. Anatomic variants may be observed and avoided. Moreover, patient confidence is enhanced by the extra care provided by this advanced technology. But the main advantage for all patients is the experience-based diagnostic assessment combined with the investigative talents of our seasoned imaging readers who are experienced in detecting scanned disorders and issues that many could miss.
