SonoAnatomy Curriculum
We cover all major areas of diagnostic and procedural POCUS
Basics
We start with uber-basics like how to turn on the ultrasound machine and which are the 4 most important buttons to understand. This section is topped off with a brief talk on ultrasound physics.
Cardiac
You'll learn all the major anatomic structures of the heart visible on ultrasound. You will discover how to obtain the 4 cardinal bedside echo views. We'll teach you how to diagnose LV systolic dysfunction, RV strain, and tamponade.
Pulmonary
Learn the normal sonographic anatomy of the lung. What's the difference between A-Lines and B-Lines? How can you diagnose pleural effusion, pulmonary edema, or pneumonia using ultrasound? Learn all that and more.
eFAST Exam
This series of short talks will train you to diagnose abdominal free fluid, pleural effusions and pericardial effusions.
Aorta and IVC
Discover the anatomic branches of the aorta. Learn how to diagnose an aortic aneurysm or dissection. You'll also find out how to get a good view of the IVC to assess central venous pressure.
Renal and Bladder
This series of talks will help you identify the anatomy of the urinary system. We help you learn to identify hydronephrosis and bladder outlet obstruction.
Vascular
Learn the sono-anatomic differences between veins and arteries. This series of talks will show you how to use ultrasound to start a peripheral IV and how to place an ultrasound-guided central line.
Gastrointestinal
Learn the anatomy of the liver, spleen, gallbladder, and bowel. From cholelithiasis to bowel obstruction, from appendicitis to a Tanga Sign. You'll learn to diagnose the most important GI pathology.
Nerve Blocks
You will learn how to identify the typical anatomy of nerves using ultrasound. Landmark peripheral nerve blocks of the upper and lower extremity? Once you learn to use ultrasound to guide you, you'll never look back.
Soft Tissue
Discover the anatomy of normal soft tissue. Learn to differentiate cellulitis from abscess, and even how to identify signs of a necrotizing skin infection and foreign body.
Ocular
We help you identify all the major ocular structures visible on ocular sonography. Retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage and elevated ICP are amongst the important findings you'll learn to diagnose.
Deep Vein Thrombosis
Learn the optimal technique to diagnose DVT and Superficial Venous Thrombosis using bedside ultrasound.
Pelvic
You'll discover the sonographic anatomy of the female pelvic region. Learn to identify an intrauterine pregnancy, measure and fetal heart rate, and estimate gestational age using ultrasound.
Musculoskeletal
You will learn the sonographic appearance of muscles, tendons, and joints. Included are lessons of the musculoskeletal anatomy of the upper and lower extremities, as well as the thorax, abdomen, and back.
Quizzes
Included in SonoAnatomy are 500 anatomy questions and 500 pathology questions to test your understanding of the material.
