Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography

528
Introduction:
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...

Ultrasonography

6.8K
Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
During an ultrasonography procedure, a handheld device called...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Anatomy
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Ultrasound integration in medical schools is growing but limited by faculty availability.
  • The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic disrupted traditional hands-on medical education, particularly ultrasound training.
  • Need for structured, independent learning resources in anatomy ultrasound.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a self-guided, system-based ultrasound curriculum for anatomy.
  • To provide structured, independent learning opportunities for medical students.
  • To supplement existing anatomy ultrasound education.

Main Methods:

  • Eight self-guided, system-based ultrasound modules were created, aligned with the anatomy curriculum.
  • Each module included beginner, intermediate, and advanced components with step-by-step instructions.
  • Modules covered image acquisition, optimization, interpretation, and troubleshooting.

Main Results:

  • Developed a comprehensive, independent learning curriculum for anatomy ultrasound.
  • Modules provided structured guidance for image acquisition and interpretation.
  • Students utilized digital portfolios for image review with faculty.

Conclusions:

  • The developed curriculum offers a model for independent, self-directed ultrasound anatomy learning.
  • This approach can increase student opportunities for hands-on ultrasound practice.
  • The curriculum is designed for integration into existing medical education programs.
