Continuous Medical Education in Obstetrics and Gynecology Ultrasound: Asian Experience
View through CrossRef
ABSTRACT
Ultrasound is the most commonly used diagnostic modality in Obstetrics and Gynecology. However, sonographic imaging is greatly influenced by individual technique and knowledge rather than ultrasound equipment. Ultrasound imaging requires not only basic knowledge of anatomy, physiology, reproductive medicine and imaging interpretation, but also scanning skills. In Japan, two types of Ian Donald courses have been held: basic and advanced courses. Live scan demonstration and hands-on sessions have been introduced in 2006. From 2006, China, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Philippines, Vietnam, Korea and Thailand established Ian Donald branches one after another. Ian Donald Inter-university School of Medical Ultrasound provides the most comprehensive, practical and systematic theoretical/ practical courses. For better efficacy, distance learning should be implemented.
