Develop essential physical sciences skills with expert instruction and practical examples.
This course acts as a review of Ultrasound physics and instrumentation and is geared towards those preparing the the RDMS SPI or APCA RMSK exam. It would likely be useful for sonographers in other jurisdictions as well. The course is 5.
5 hours of video with "understanding checks" every 15-20 minutes. As well as over 100 true-and-false and multiple choice questions in the Quizzes which should act as a good practice run for your exam. In the videos I'll cover:- the elementary principles of ultrasound including definition of ultrasound, basic properties, and units of measure.
- Fundamental principles of sound and the propagation of sound in soft tissue. - components and terminology of ultrasound equipment and instrumentation. The parts of a transducer and their function.
- The steps necessary to go from pulses of emitted sound, to creating an image on the screen. - Hemodynamics and some basic fluid physics. - Color Doppler, pulse wave, continuous, and Power doppler Imaging.
