Friday
SESSION 3: WORKSHOP ROTATION 1
Location: Murray Hill Suites East and West, 2nd Floor
Moderators:TBD
SESSION 3 SCHEDULE
LOCATION: ROOM 1 - AMERICAS HALL 2, 3RD FLOOR
10:45 AM - 11:45 AM 1. Color Optimization
Color Doppler has some similarities to spectral Doppler, some similarities to B-mode imaging, and some unique characteristics. As such, optimizing color and understanding color artifacts is somewhat different than understanding imaging or spectral Doppler. In this lecture (workshop) you will be shown color situations and then asked how to best improve the image or eliminate the artifact(s).
  Presenter(s):Frank Miele, MSEE  
LOCATION: ROOM 2 - AMERICAS HALL 2, 3RD FLOOR
10:45 AM - 11:45 AM 2. Quality Matters – Manage It Well
This lecture/workshop will discuss basic and advanced setup of presets for venous, arterial and carotid duplex examinations. What are the common B-Mode, Spectral and Color Doppler and basic dynamic optimization parameters and how to quickly adjust them for maximum performance. The setup for more advanced needs – Visceral, Dialysis Access, Transcranial Doppler Duplex and EVAR Duplex will also be covered.
  Presenter(s):Richard Dubin, AAS-DMS, RVT, RDMS / Angela Rodriguez-Wong, MD, RPVI, RVT  
LOCATION: ROOM 3 - AMERICAS HALL 2, 3RD FLOOR
10:45 AM - 11:45 AM 3. Cardiac Effects On Duplex Vascular Ultrasound Testing
The effect of cardiac pathologies on flow patterns in the venous and arterial circulations and their impact of the peripheral duplex examination and interpretation will be discussed. This will be a case study lecture/workshop.
  Presenter(s):Heather L. Gornik, MD / David M. Williams, MS

LOCATION: ROOM 4 - AMERICAS HALL 2, 3RD FLOOR
10:45 AM - 11:45 AM 4. Principles Of Duplex Diagnosis
This workshop will discuss the step-by-step protocol for interpreting the vascular ultrasound study with attention to potential pitfalls in a variety of basic and difficult vascular cases.
  Presenter(s):Laurence Needleman, MD / Richard C. Pennell, MD, RPVI, FACS  
LOCATION: ROOM 5 - AMERICAS HALL 2, 3RD FLOOR
10:45 AM - 11:45 AM 5. Ergonomics
Work postures are the one solution over which sonographers have the most control. Regardless of the work schedule or the work station equipment, if sonographers fail to make changes in how they perform exams, they will continue to be at risk for occupational injuries. This workshop will provide practical solutions and advice for maximizing your ergonomic experience in order to reduce the long-term negative effects of WRMSDs.
  Presenter(s):Matthew P. Hernandez, BSc, DPT, CSCS  
LOCATION: ROOM 6 - AMERICAS HALL 2, 3RD FLOOR
10:45 AM - 11:45 AM 6. Doppler Facts And Misconceptions
  Presenter(s):Traci B. Fox, EdD, RDMS, RVT
