SON 276B - Vascular Sonography II
Credits: 3
Description
Continuation of SON 275B (Vascular Sonography I), with an emphasis on the use of “Indirect Testing” ultrasound evaluation of the vascular system in the upper and lower extremities; and transcranial Doppler. Plethysmography of extremity vessels will also be discussed.
Student Learning Outcomes
- Recognize normal and abnormal duplex and color Doppler patterns seen on abdominal ultrasound exams.
- Describe the internal, surface, cross-sectional and relational anatomies of the upper extremity vessels.
- Explain the clinical significance of specific pathological processes related to the upper extremity vessels.
- Describe the internal, surface, cross-sectional and relational anatomies of the lower extremity vessels.
- Explain the clinical significance of specific pathological processes related to the lower extremity vessels.
- Describe the internal, surface, cross-sectional and relational anatomies of the cerebrovascular and extracranial vessels.
- Explain the clinical significance of specific pathological processes related to the cerebrovascular and extracranial vessels.
