Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to announce our 7th international
ultrasound course, taking place in Berlin at the famous
university teaching Hospital Charité.
Diagnostic ultrasound of brain supplying vessels has
gained more and more importance in recent years.
This is due to continuous advances in ultrasound
systems and techniques which give us more and more
insight into the sonographic vascular anatomy as well
as cerebral hemodynamics. In this course we focus on
intracranial vascular diagnosics of arteries and the
venous system under physiological as well
as pathological conditions. It aimes at
colleagues, who would like to increase their
knowledge as well as their practical skills in
Neurosonology. The course comprises theoretical
lectures as well as tutored practicals with probands
and patients.
The hosts have a long-standing teaching experience
and have been holding annual ultrasound courses
in Berlin as well as in several other European
cities since 1999. We thank PD Dr. Karen Gertz –
Dept. of Neurology at the Charité-Universitätsmedizin
Berlin for her support, giving us the opportunity to
continue the course at the Charité venue.
We are looking forward to seeing you in Berlin!
