Vein Therapy / Ultrasound Training Workshop
Training Workshop
Overview:
The treatment of lower extremity venous disease
is rapidly evolving into an ultrasound dependent entity that is creating a unique challenge. The
age of ligation and stripping of veins with significant patient “down-time” is giving way to
minimally invasive in-office and intra-operative ultrasound guided procedures. These procedures require
the expansion of ultrasound expertise from routine diagnostics to intricate insufficiency examinations and procedures with
unique scanning nuances. If you are involved in the ultrasound evaluation OR treatment of superficial
and perforating veins for incompetence or to assist in ultrasound guided vein procedures, this training workshop is for you!
Advanced Ultrasound Consultants developed this unique intensive training
workshop to educate and enlighten Sonographers/Technologists, Physicians, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners,
Nurses, and other professionals participating in current-trend vein therapy treatment and ultrasound scanning.
*There are many companies and individuals that offer "Venous insufficiency/Phlebology training"....
