Description

Clinical Approach to Vascular Ultrasound and RPVI Prep Course 2023

Designed to help you establish a strong foundation in both performance and interpretation of vascular ultrasound, this online CME program was developed in conjunction with the medical and technical directors of the vascular labs at Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, as well as esteemed faculty from Stanford University Hospital, University of Colorado, and Johns Hopkins Hospital.

The Clinical Approach to Vascular Ultrasound and RPVI Prep Course delivers practical examples and case presentations that will enhance your ability to apply knowledge in patient situations. Online continuing medical education lecture topics include:

Fundamental lower extremity physiologic and imaging studies used to diagnose and treat peripheral artery disease
Normal and abnormal anatomy and imaging of the subclavian and vertebral arteries
Techniques and indications used to predict impending bypass graft failure
General overview for diagnosing and characterizing deep vein thrombosis, pelvic congestions syndrome, May-Thurner syndrome and venous thoracic outlet syndrome
Dynamic TCD studies and their resulting surgical interventions and follow-ups
and more…

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

Demonstrate clinical interpretation of arterial and venous vascular noninvasive studies in the peripheral, cerebrovascular and abdominal systems
Discuss the clinical application of velocity criteria for grading of stenosis in the vasculature including dialysis grafts, endovascular interventions in the aorta and peripheral system, and bypass grafts
Summarize basic ultrasound physics and ultrasound technology as it applies to vascular diagnostics
Review topics commonly found on the Registered Physician in Vascular Interpretation (RPVI) exam
Develop and implement a vascular laboratory program at their home institution

Intended Audience

This course is targeted to primary care physicians and specialty physicians. This course may also be of interest to ultrasound technologists, general and specialty surgeons, practitioners preparing for the RPVI, and practitioners who wish to start a vascular lab.
