Abstract:
A three-year diagnostic ultrasound training project for generalists is described. Specific applications and a rationale for the use of ultrasound by general physicians are presented. The current status of training programmes, credentialing strategies, and desirable equipment characteristics are also discussed. Finally, benefits, liabilities and controversies in diagnostic ultrasound imaging are reviewed.
