Description

This course is an Advanced Ultrasound Physics course following the "Introduction to Ultrasound Physics" course I've created before. In fact, I highly suggest that you take them in order, otherwise it may be difficult for you to comprehend some of the concepts of the Advanced course.

The Physics is boring. Similarly, the Ultrasound Physics... However, to become a Sonographer, you need to know it and understand it. Yeah, and do not forget about this notorious SPI (Sonography Principles & Instrumentation) ARDMS board exam. You MUST pass it successfully in order to become a registered Sonographer, as well as Vascular Technologist.

That is why I'm going to try to make this scary subject more manageable, easier to understand, and easier to learn. There will be a lot of work on your part:

You will have quizzes.
You will need to memorize formulas, definitions, and logical chains of principles.
You will need to do some homework between the lectures.

However, at the end of the day, I can give you a promise: you will not be scared of Ultrasound Physics, and you will be ready to conquer the ARDMS SPI Ultrasound Physics exam or continue to learn Physical concepts.

Who this course is for:

This Ultrasound Physics course is meant for Diagnostic Ultrasound students, professionals, and Sonographers who are preparing to sit for SPI ARDMS board examination
