About This CME Teaching Activity
This CME activity offers a comprehensive review of recent developments and issues in noninvasive vascular imaging. Throughout the program faculty address state-of-the-art ultrasound and Doppler techniques and how they are used to evaluate the cerebrovascular, abdominal and peripheral vascular systems. In addition, diagnostic pearls and pitfalls, credentialing requirements, venous testing and the clinical applications of transcranial Doppler are discussed.
Target Audience
This CME 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 Objectives
At the completion of this CME teaching activity, you should be able to:
- Discuss the newest techniques in the noninvasive diagnosis of endovascular disease, including venous and carotid imaging.
- Assess new developments in vascular imaging.
- Discuss the utility of ultrasound and Doppler imaging when used to evaluate the aorta, carotid arteries, and peripheral vascular system.
- Utilize ultrasound to evaluate abdominal transplants, endostents, and dialysis fistula.
- Utilize ultrasound to evaluate the venous system of the upper and lower extremities.
- Describe the appropriate role of ultrasound in the evaluation of the renal and hepatic arteries.
