Daniel McGrail, MD, Shirin Saeed, MD, Christina Short, BS, Yifan Bu, MD
We are excited to announce the launch of our comprehensive certification program in ultrasound, designed to enhance both knowledge and practical skills through a hybrid learning approach. The program begins with an online component featuring interactive knowledge tests, didactic materials, and a digital library of cases.
This virtual phase is done in parallel to in-person workshops and bedside teaching that integrates a cloud based software QPathe for secure storage and review of studies by expert mentors. This ensure continuous longitudinal learning and feedback. Upon successful completion of the program, participants will receive certification in ultrasound, affirming their expertise and readiness to excel in the field. Participants in the certification program are coached by a large cohort of local mentors to guide them through case review and provide tailored feedback. The curriculum is continually updated to reflect the latest advancements and best practices in ultrasound technology, ensuring that participants are always learning the most current techniques. Additionally, our program emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach, incorporating insights from medicine and emergency medicine to provide a well-rounded perspective. This dynamic combination of theory, practice, and mentorship prepares participants to not only master ultrasound but also to apply their skills effectively in diverse clinical settings.
