In addition, EFSUMB Experts published an interesting paper entitled Ultrasound Curricula
of Student Education in Europe: Summary of the Experience. They provided the current
situation at European universities regarding the integration of ultrasound technique
in student medical education reporting student ultrasound training models selected
from different European universities. According to the results presented, only a minority
of European universities has integrated ultrasound into the preclinical curriculum
thus far. The experts conclude that future EFSUMB initiatives will continue to promote
the introduction of ultrasound as an integrative part of the core curriculum of student
medical education, and the preparation of proper teaching material.
Dr. Arneberg et al. reported on prospective evaluation on how much Confident and effective
are Medical Students to Identify Abdominal Structures After Integrated Ultrasound
Sessions.
To conclude, interesting case reports discussing the role of US and diagnostic pitfalls
in diagnosisng Placental Mesenchymal Dysplasiaand Ultrasound-Guided Cryoablation of
Renal Grafts Tumors are presented.
We hope these papers will be appreciated by you as
they were by us.
