AHEC has designed and presented specialty ultrasound training in a variety of different fields. A mainstay in our curriculum is Emergency Department Ultrasound, Stat Care Ultrasound for Critical Care Physicians, and Specialty Procedures in Ultrasound. New this year is the Limited OB Ultrasound course. Musculoskeletal Ultrasound is a popular course and a new course in sports medicine ultrasound will be coming soon. Also new this year is a course called Venous Reflux Testing developed upon request from clients.
