2020 Classic Lectures in Clinical Ultrasound This classic series is a comprehensive clinically focused review of diagnostic ultrasound. Basic to advanced imaging applications including ob-gyn, abdominal, musculoskeletal, pediatric and vascular applications provide a well-rounded review of ultrasound imaging techniques. The faculty share tips, protocols, and advice on how to avoid pitfalls through actual clinical experiences.

This CME activity is designed to educate those who order, perform, and interpret clinical ultrasound studies. It should be particularly valuable for diagnostic imaging physicians, ob-gyn physicians, vascular surgeons, and referring physicians who utilize ultrasound to evaluate the clinical status of their patients.

Educational Symposia

Physicians: Educational Symposia is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

Educational Symposia designates this enduring material for a maximum of 31.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)^TM. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

SA-CME: Credits awarded for this enduring activity are designated “SA-CME” by the American Board of Radiology (ABR) and qualify toward fulfilling requirements for Maintenance of Certification (MOC) Part II: Lifelong Learning and Self-assessment.

All activity participants are required to take a written or online test in order to be awarded credit. All course participants will also have the opportunity to critically evaluate the program as it relates to practice relevance and educational objectives.

AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)^TM for these programs may be claimed until June 14, 2023.

This CME activity was planned and produced by Educational Symposia, the leader in diagnostic imaging education since 1975.

This CME activity was planned and produced in accordance with the ACCME Essential Areas and Elements.
