Ultrasound imaging simulation module

anatomymaleweb-based

This module teaches you how to prepare for and perform an ultrasound examination of the male reproductive system. The interactive simulator provides three scenarios that cover different types of scans. Online simulations enable students and practitioners to build or refresh knowledge and cognitive skills, and offer a safe practice environment so you can prepare for the real clinical world You can also use simulations to try out procedures that you might not otherwise experience. This module is ideal if you are studying for the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS) registry exams.
