Introduction to point-of-care ultrasound workshops

RACGP Rural is offering registrars and GPs around Australia the opportunity to gain practical experience in ultrasound.
 
This full-day active learning module (ALM) will improve your understanding of point-of-care ultrasound applications in the diagnostic process. Ultrasound experts will guide you through the diverse applications of ultrasound in primary care services. You will be introduced to basic techniques using advanced, high-end mobile equipment. Each workshop is capped at 25 participants to allow hands-on experience.
 
This ALM is accredited for 40 Category 1 Quality Improvement and Continuing Professional Development (QI&CPD) points in the 2017–2019 triennium. It is also approved for all categories of the Rural Procedural Grants Program.
