The congress will bring together the medical profession and those concerned about the quality of today’s health care to share experiences, expertise and thoughts on how best to incorporate the power of ultrasound into education and clinical practice. The event will feature the latest in innovative research in ultrasound education, including the use of artificial intelligence to teach and assess learner competencies. Medical students, mid-level practitioners, allied health professionals, residents and graduate students will have the opportunity to interact with national and international research experts.

Registration fees for all participants include access to all sessions and the exhibit hall, the welcome reception, continental breakfast, coffee breaks, lunches, poster sessions and digital delegate materials.

The conference will also showcase the comprehensive undergraduate ultrasound curriculum at the WSU School of Medicine, introduced as the first program of its kind in the nation, in 2006.

​The curriculum has since been implemented across all four years of undergraduate medical training. More than 12,000 students have been exposed to the curriculum during pre-clinical and clinical years.

​​Ultrasound education has been successfully integrated into Gross Anatomy, Cardiac Physiology, Physical Diagnosis/Clinical Skills course, including Cardiac, Abdominal and Musculoskeletal pathology.
