Carotid imaging

4:35 PM - 5:15 PM

Abstract

This workshop will unravel carotid imaging from basic anatomy and technique to the more advanced level including recent advancements and nomenclature. At the advanced level, we will discuss the recently published Carotid Plaque-RADS (positives and concerns), plus more uncommon pathologies such as TIPIC.

Live scanning will be advantageous to junior sonographers as I will run through tips and tricks on how to perform a complete extracranial vessel ultrasound.
