Pre-Conference Ultrasound Workshop
A pre-conference Ultrasound Workshop is being hosted by RACGP on Friday 16 September.
This full-day workshop will help increase your understanding of the applications of point-of-care ultrasound in the diagnostic process. Experts will guide you through the diverse applications of point-of-care ultrasound in rural primary care. You will be introduced to basic techniques using advanced high-end mobile ultrasound equipment provided by our sponsor GE Healthcare.
The workshop is capped at 30 participants to allow increased hands-on experience. Participants will rotate through six ultrasound skills stations:
