This examination serves as a standardized assessment for physicians, fellows, and radiologists to evaluate and showcase their knowledge of echocardiography against well-defined criteria.
The primary objective of this course is to assist individuals in their preparation for the RPVI examination. It achieves this by granting access to expert-led lectures, which encompass practical cases and practice examination questions. The course covers the following key topics:
Vascular Ultrasound Physics
Image Acquisition
Carotid Duplex
Transcranial Doppler
Visceral Duplex
Aorto-iliac Duplex
Noninvasive/Lower Extremity Venous
Noninvasive/Lower Extremity Arterial Duplex
Physiological Arterial Studies
Upper Extremity Arterial Studies
