Vascular Ultrasound Training

Vascular Ultrasound Training for


Physicians and Other Medical Professionals
For comprehensive vascular interpretation courses that train
medical professionals in proper duplex testing and
sonography techniques for vascular conditions, look no
further than Advanced Health Education Center (AHEC) in
Houston, Texas. AHEC can provide the vascular ultrasound
training you need to perform more skillful, accurate
diagnostic testing of vascular conditions.
Why Vascular Ultrasound?
Vascular ultrasound has come a long way in recent years. Because its
early incarnation was a grainy, black and white, two-dimensional image,
vascular ultrasound was once thought of as a mere screening tool. Now,
Doppler technology and color imaging make vascular ultrasound the
modality of choice for early detection of many vascular conditions,
including:

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD)
Cerebrovascular disease
Venous disease
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)

For that reason, physicians and other medical professionals must learn
how to perform this procedure so that they can accurately diagnose
patients.
What is Covered in Our Vascular
Ultrasound Training?
In the vascular interpretation courses we offer at AHEC, our highly
qualified physician instructors present a thorough overview of the
anatomy and hemodynamics of the vascular system, as well as the various
pathological conditions that can present during vascular ultrasounds.

Our courses also cover multiple variables that may be present in patients,
such as cardiac output, dehydration and infection, which can all affect the
vascular system in different ways and aggravate existing conditions. A
number of case studies will be presented, which will ensure that
participants can gain an exhaustive understanding of vascular conditions
in a wide range of patients.
During the scan lab portion of the course, participants will use our state
of the art equipment to perfect their vascular ultrasound protocol. We
offer a low student-to-instructor ratio, which allows everyone time to
demonstrate their skills and have their techniques verified by the
instructors. In fact, our instructors are also available for participant
questions long after the course has ended. This is just one factor that
sets the vascular ultrasound training at AHEC apart from other vascular
interpretation courses.
