Overview

The Neurovascular Ultrasound Interpretation course is designed for attendees to interpret at least 200 neurovascular ultrasound cases (100 carotid and 100 TCD studies) in a supervised environment. This live activity is delivered virtually. While full-week attendance is encouraged, participants have the flexibility to choose specific days based on their area of focus. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday covers TCD interpretation while Thursday and Friday is specific to Carotid interpretation.  

Cases will be presented using video and electronic images, from which attendees will create a preliminary interpretation. The findings will be discussed, and when possible, compared with the clinical reading. Some unknown cases will be reviewed and submitted for critique. 

Prerequisites: Prior completion of the Neurovascular Ultrasound course (or its equivalent) including hands-on and practical interpretation experience is strongly encouraged. Basics of Neurovascular ultrasound (carotid and TCD) interpretation and clinical interpretation are covered in our Neurovascular Ultrasound course and will only be repeated in relevant to the case-based review. Attendees with no prior ultrasound knowledge or experience who need the basics of ultrasound interpretation and clinical interpretation should seek education in basics and clinical indications before this course. Neurovascular Ultrasound (Carotid and TCD) serves as a preamble to this course.
