SONO 2014 - Vascular 2



Credit hours: 4 (Lecture: 4, Lab 0)

Prerequisites: SONO 2004 - Vascular 1  

Course Description:
The second of a multi-course sequence that will assess anatomy, physiology, and related hemodynamics of the vascular system from the sonographic imaging perspective. Pathology, clinical signs and symptoms, applicable laboratory values, pathophysiology, and differential diagnosis will be presented.

Student Learning Outcomes:
Students will be able to:

  1. Demonstrate knowledge of normal and abnormal specified anatomy, physiology, pathology, and hemodynamics.
  2. Evaluate the principals of fluid dynamics in the vascular system with respect to normal and abnormal flow. 
  3. Utilize the varying graphic recording devices used in non-invasive direct and indirect vascular testing.
  4. Analyze patient history, risk factors, and signs and symptoms of vascular disease.
  5. Determine appropriate uses of vascular testing specific to the vasculature being studied.
  6. Evaluate data collected from vascular examinations to create a preliminary interpretation report.
  7. Integrate physical principals of ultrasound specific to vascular sonography.
