The spine has the appearance of severe scoliosis and extreme curvature in the thoracic portion, suggesting kyphosis. The amniotic fluid is quite generous at 26.4cm. The umbilical looked extremely short, but precise length measurement could not be obtained. Fetus showed little to NO movement. Follow up MRI confirmed the following:<br />1. Kyphoscoliosis<br />2. Ectopia cordis,<br />3. Polyhydramnios<br />4. Large omphalocele (containing liver, stomach, spleen, and almost all of the bowel) <strong>By MRI,</strong> o<strong>mphalocele appears to be contiguous with the uterine wall</strong> (This is a very important finding that could not be determined with Ultrasound).<br /><br />Previous to MRI, the diagnosis was suspected to be Pentralogy of Cantrell, but the supplementary MRI has led to a different diagnosis…. (Hint: Actual diagnosis is often a differential for Pentralogy of Cantrell)<br /><br /></div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span></div><div><br /><br /><br /></div><div></div>DMS Administratorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07048570499257838507noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6838792141428056450.post-54977025859493489182010-10-19T23:29:00.008-04:002010-10-20T00:20:59.676-04:00Week 8 GYN Case Study by Abby<span style="font-family:arial;"><strong>Case Review: </strong>This is a case of a 43 year old female who was referred to my clinical site for evaluation of her uterus and ovaries prior to a hysterectomy surgery.

For 25 years of research, engineers, William Richard and David Zar, have been taking technology that normally fits into a full sized cabinet and now miniaturizing this technology down a tiny card. The electronic board measures 1inch by 3 inches. About 10 years ago the engineers moved their work from developing a PCI card to USB plug in probes. Their focus of engineering moved to the electronics of the probe. So now when you want to change a probe you are using a USB device instead of having to change the card. Richard and Zar are now collaborating with Microsoft Research and have developed a number of commercial based USB probes that are compatible with Windows XP and Windows Vista. The probes can be used with compatible Windows Mobile Smartphone. The advantage of using the smartphone verses PC is that the smartphone is super portable and can be used as a platform to transmit images to another location using the smartphone internet capability.<br /><br />Without a doubt this is extraordinary technology! But, what are the pros and cons? As I am reading about the proposed uses of the equipment all I am reading is about how this new technology can be made available to everyone. Will there be restrictions as to who will be allowed to purchase the ultrasound equipment? At the end of one article William Richard states that he hopes to see the probes on any pharmacy shelf soon. He hopes to have the cost down to approximately $500.00 a probe. GE has recently announced their version of a hand held ultrasound device, the Vscan, without any mention of price. GE also hopes to see the ease of availability for those that wish to purchase an ultrasound device; they even encourage the ease of home use for pregnancy scanning.I am currently in ultrasound training through an accredited program. I would hope that there will be some restriction on who will be allowed to buy this new ultrasound equipment. Those of us who are professionally trained and know the complexity of imaging and interpreting ultrasound are fascinated with the technology but at the same time I see some devastating circumstances occurring if it is left unchecked.<br /><br />Do any of you see other pros and cons? What do you think would be the most likely error an untrained person would make? Do you think this will make office based ultrasound obsolete and why?DMS Administratorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07048570499257838507noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6838792141428056450.post-24355535589645366112010-03-26T07:46:00.002-04:002010-03-26T07:48:43.374-04:00Travel Sonography: Is It a Vacation? by Abby<span style="color:#3366ff;">Blog Posting by Abby Coffin<br />1st Year DMS Student<br />Montgomery College</span><br /><br /> <span style="color:#cc66cc;"><strong><u>Travel Sonography: Is It a Vacation?<br /></u></strong></span><br />On our steadily progressing journey through school, we have approached many new and exciting situations. But what about our journey after school? How should we land a job? Or rather, where?<br /><br />One of the many options out there is travel sonography, an attractive option that boasts the ability to travel the country as well as see firsthand all different kinds of work environments. Exposure to new learning experiences as a sonographer could become invaluable for resume building by providing you the skills to face a diverse set of dynamic situations, an invaluable asset for you and potential employers. Company compensated accommodations and paid benefits in conjunction with potential exemption from Federal income taxes propose a modestly lucrative living on top of an exciting career path.<br /><br />But what happens that morning when you wake up and realize you miss your husband and his chainsaw snoring, or you miss your hyperventilating Pug greeting you at the door? Maybe you’re homesick. It’s possible that a regular routine is what keeps you grounded, in which case travel sonography may not be the thing that blows your hair back. It could be that you have a well-established family and children in school, or other family obligations that require you to stay nearby. Would travel sonography be more of an emotional drain than a reward?<br /><br />On the other hand, there are those who just bring everyone along - husband, kids, pets, and plants! Most assignments are about 13 weeks in length, or about 3 months, which can also have its positives and negatives. Some people enjoy being able to make many new friends but appreciate the ability to move on without too much separation anxiety or involvement in workplace politics. Others believe that traveling has allowed them to serve a deeper purpose by placing them in the right place at the right time for those in need – whether they were patients or coworkers. In all cases, traveling is a great way to explore various work sites and geographical locales, whether you are seeking the best place to settle down or you enjoy the occasional change of scenery.<br /><br />There are many other considerations in choosing travel sonography, and if you are interested you should do a little research, ask around, and weigh your obligations and flexibilities. Would you consider traveling? Would you agree if your significant other wanted to travel and work? Do you know anyone who travels and can share their individual insights? What are some facts and myths about travel sonography that you have heard? What about international travel?<br /><br />Reference and a great resource:<br /> <a href="http://healthcaretraveler.modernmedicine.com/">http://healthcaretraveler.modernmedicine.com</a>DMS Administratorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07048570499257838507noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6838792141428056450.post-7649610190420706482010-03-26T07:43:00.002-04:002010-03-26T07:46:44.956-04:00Diagnostic Medical Sonography as a Career: What is it About? by Mimi<span style="color:#3366ff;">Mimi Tran Blog post<br />1st Year DMS Student<br />Montgomery College</span><br /><br /> <strong> </strong><span style="color:#cc66cc;"><u><strong>Diagnostic Medical Sonography as a Career: What is it About?<br /></strong></u></span><br />Have you ever wondered about a career in medical sonography? You know those people that perform the studies when you go into a hospital for a sonogram of a baby or a study of your heart. Were you ever curious about the educational requirements, duties, certifications, salaries, locations, job outlook, etc...? Then read on.<br /><br />Ultrasound technicians or sonographers are highly-skilled professionals who use specialized equipment to create images of the internal structures, organs and/or tissues inside the human body for the physicians to diagnosis medical problems. For over the last 20 years, these techs have usually been employed by clinics, hospitals, private practice physician offices, public health facilities, laboratories, and other medical settings. <br /><br />Sonographers must meet certain requirements such as: be in good physical health condition, be able to lift over 50lbs, be able to analyze technical information, interact compassionately and effectively with the sick or injured, and obtain and record patient histories. They must also know the dangers of blood and bodily fluid exposure.<br /><br />Salaries for sonographers are competitive with or higher than other professionals with similar levels of education. These vary according to experience levels and geographic locations. A release by the SDMS Salary and Benefits Survey reports (released March, 2005) that a sonographer’s median salary is $61,984, or typically $29 per hour.<br /><br />A medical sonographers training may vary; some may train in hospitals, vocational-technical institutions, colleges or universities, or the Armed Forces. Colleges and universities offer formal training in either 2-year and 4-year programs, resulting in either an associate’s or a bachelor's degree. From what I can tell, these programs are a study and time intensive commitment, so do your research and be ready to jump in head first.<br /> <br /> Medical sonographers are experiencing a growth rate of about 18% thru 2018, much faster than most similar occupations. This is due to a growing aging population, advancements in technology, and the need for a safer and more cost-effective alternative to radiological procedures.<br /><br />Now that you understand more about the medical sonographer’s career, do you think that this is the career for you? Are you interested in exploring the accredited educational institutions with programs in diagnostic medical sonography near you? Do you know anyone who is already a registered diagnostic medical sonographer? What about someone who has been in other healthcare fields and is now moving to sonography? How did they think the different fields compared to each other?<br />Reference: <a href="http://www.sdms.org/career/career.asp" target="_blank">http://www.sdms.org/career/career.asp</a><a href="http://www.medtravelers.com/ultrasound-technician.aspx" target="_blank">http://www.medtravelers.com/ultrasound-technician.aspx</a>DMS Administratorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07048570499257838507noreply@blogger.com35tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6838792141428056450.post-55544738858215326392010-03-26T07:41:00.001-04:002010-03-26T07:43:50.506-04:00Ultrasoundn Practitioner by Grace<span style="color:#3366ff;">Blog posting By Grace Lee</span><br /><span style="color:#3366ff;">1st year DMS student</span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;"><span style="color:#3366ff;"> Montgomery College</span><br /></span><br /> <strong><u><span style="color:#cc66cc;">Ultrasound Practitioner</span></u></strong><br /><span style="color:#cc66cc;"></span><br />In the 21st century, the change in the patient demographics, needs and health care finances improves quality in clinical practice. Moreover, the change develops health professions. Now, you can see many Nurse Practitioners and Physician’s Assistants who are specialized members within the health professions. They might stand as a good model for the Ultrasound Practitioner.<br />What is an Ultrasound Practitioner? According to The Ultrasound Practitioner, by Coffin, an Ultrasound Practitioner is a health care professional who autonomously performs and interprets ultrasound procedures in primary or specialty areas of ultrasound. In other words, the Ultrasound Practitioner is an advanced-level ultrasound imager or interpreter. The Ultrasound Practitioner would provide a much higher level of clinical performance, interpretation, clinical correlation and suggested follow-up.<br /><br />To be an Ultrasound Practitioner, prerequisites are strongly suggested. There are many more requirements entering this profession to ensure “experience” in the field. For those who are already eligible for a Master’s program, you should prepare a prospective plan. There is a sample curriculum of an Ultrasound Practitioner program that has been created by George Washington University. For more information on their proposed curriculum you can visit the following url (<a href="http://www.sdms.org/pdf/UP2001.pdf">http://www.sdms.org/pdf/UP2001.pdf</a>, p5), or e-mail at them at <a href="mailto:ultrap@gwu.edu">ultrap@gwu.edu</a> to inquire about their Master’s degree for Ultrasound Practitioners that is under development. The following requirements are currently recommended: Bachelor’s degree, Ultrasound Practitioner master degree core curriculum, 5 years clinical experience, RDMS, RDCS, RVT or CCI certified, post-graduate clinical training in Ultrasound Practitioner Program (18-24 months), successful completion of Ultrasound Practitioner national board certification examination.<br /><br />So far, Ultrasound Practitioner programs do not exist. There are currently three universities who are in the process of developing a program. They soon will be updating their initiatives by reporting their progress through JDMS soon.<br /><br />It will be challenging to become an Ultrasound Practitioner, however imagine being an Ultrasound Practitioner in the future as healthcare evolves; we hope that there will be a place for this new emerging profession.

Presently, graduates of sonography schools whether accredited or not can practice sonography statewide without state licensure in the United States. Many sonographers are registered with ARDMS and do have credentials but these credentials awarded by ARDMS do not have much legal weight. This is because there are no state laws or regulations implemented to oversee sonographers perform sonograms and sanction sonographers of inappropriate acts. With state licensure, physicians and consumers would be able to receive quality sonograms without unnecessary repetition and physicians would provide the best treatment decisions based on the correct information received from these sonograms. With state licensure, sonographers who did not acquire proper sonographic education or who commit inappropriate acts would be banned from practicing. <br /><br />Two states (New Mexico and Oregon) out of all fifty states are now moving forward in requiring sonographers to get licensed. As of July 1st 2010, sonographers in Oregon are required to be licensed as well as sonographers in New Mexico. What example does this show to all other states? Are they going to follow New Mexico and Oregon footsteps to license every sonographer or sit back and not have to deal with it? What does this mean to sonographers in New Mexico and Oregon? Are they going to get licensed? Or move to another state to practice if licensure is impossible. What about the job market in New Mexico and Oregon? Will this attract sonographers from other states to NM and Oregon or would this drive away many sonographers who are trying to avoid state licensure?<br /><br /> There are pros and cons to state licensure but if a hairdresser can have a license to make hair, so too can a sonographer have a license to perform sonogram.<br /><br />References<br /><br />Benefits Of Your Sonography Certificate <a href="http://www.medacademy.org/articles/benefits-of-your-sonography-certificate">http://www.medacademy.org/articles/benefits-of-your-sonography-certificate</a><br />Oregon Governor Signs Sonographer Licensure Legislation and New Mexico Sonographer Licensure Law Signed <a href="http://www.sdms.org/">http://www.sdms.org/</a><br /><br />New Mexico Legislature Passes Bill To License Sonography and Magnetic<br /><a href="https://www.asrt.org/Content/News/PressRoom/PR2009/newmexicol090320.aspx">https://www.asrt.org/Content/News/PressRoom/PR2009/newmexicol090320.aspx</a>DMS Administratorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07048570499257838507noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6838792141428056450.post-53560212957957203262010-03-26T07:36:00.002-04:002010-03-26T07:39:38.133-04:00Ultrasound on a Smartphone by kermen<span style="color:#3366ff;">Blog posting By Kermen Bormanshinov</span><br /><span style="color:#3366ff;">1st year DMS student </span><br /><span style="color:#3366ff;">Montgomery College</span><br /><br /> <strong><u><span style="color:#cc66cc;">Ultrasound on a Smartphone</span></u></strong><br /><strong><u><span style="color:#cc66cc;"></span></u></strong><br />Most Americans at some point in their lives will have an ultrasound exam. The purpose of this exam is to evaluate one’s health. Mothers first experience ultrasound imaging during their pregnancies, monitoring the development of their fetuses. The machines are large and located in hospitals and physicians offices but now it is possible through rapid high-tech development that ultrasounds can be performed with a Smartphone.<br /><br />Researchers at the Washington University of St. Louis, with help of a Microsoft grant, developed USB probes compatible with smart phones. It was an unbelievable step from bulky machines to small probes that can be used with cell phones. Researchers are sure that they will help a lot of people.<br /><br />These ultrasound portable devices will make lives of so many patients much easier, like patients with Duchene's Muscular Dystrophy. The use of USB compatible probes with Smartphone’s will make ultrasound exams more accessible for a general population. I think using these devices in ambulance mobile units’ will save a lot of lives. They can also be used in combat for the military to help determine the seriousness of an injury. This technology could save a soldiers life not to mention the impact it will have on lower the cost of imaging for the general patient population. <br /><br />The typical portable ultrasound device costs around $30,000. The USB compatible probes sell for less than $2, 000, with a goal price of $500, which makes them more affordable. These lower costs for this technology will be very beneficial in developing countries since two third of the world do not have imaging services because of the high cost and the lack of trained professionals. With this technology an ultrasound scan could be performed in a remote village and then images could be sent to a clinic for a diagnosis.<br /><br />Do you think USB probes compatible with Smartphone’s will make larger more bulky ultrasound machines obsolete in the future? Do you think ultrasound in a Smartphone will dominate ultrasound imaging? What are the consequences of wide availability of these probes to a general population? Do you think they will find a wide application in our community? What do you think about your Smartphone becoming a medical imaging device?<br /><br />References:<br /><a href="http://www.esciencenews.com/">www.esciencenews.com</a><br /> <a href="http://www.sonoworld.com/">www.sonoworld.com</a><br /><a href="http://news.wustl.edu/">http://news.wustl.edu</a>DMS Administratorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07048570499257838507noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6838792141428056450.post-54388987369699806472010-03-26T07:31:00.003-04:002010-03-26T07:36:31.450-04:00The Advantages and Disadvantages of a Distance-Learning DMS Program by zouliath<span style="color:#3366ff;">Blog posting By Zouliath Bouraima</span><br /><span style="color:#3366ff;">1st year DMS student </span><br /><span style="color:#3366ff;">Montgomery College</span><br /><br /> <span style="color:#cc66cc;"><u><strong>The Advantages and Disadvantages of a Distance-Learning DMS Program</strong></u></span><br /><strong></strong><br />Online blended learning is a requirement for all students enrolled in the Diagnostic Medical Sonography Program at Montgomery College. Some advantages of distance learning includes less time commuting. Our money and time that we will have spent on travel back and forth to school will be saving. We can complete most of the classes at our convenience. Most of the time, we don’t have to attend a lecture at a particular time and place. We can review the assignments and do our homework during off-hours or from home. We also have the flexibility to study in any convenient location with an Internet connection. We can study wherever we have access to a computer and Internet connection. We also have the flexibility to join conversations in the board discussion areas at any hour, and to review our classmates' comments since the previous visit.<br /><br />Distance learning also makes us gain extra knowledge on computer skill, and how to manage our time. Distance learning is a self-paced learning for slow and quick learners. It reduces our stress and increases our satisfaction.<br />Distances learning also has its disadvantages, such as both the instructors and students involved in distance learning may need to make sacrifices at times to get things done on time. Distance learning does not offer immediate feedback. Distance learning does not always offer all the necessary courses online. Students pursuing a specific degree program such as sonography, will have to go to their clinical sites to learn how to scan, this cannot be completed online. Some people find it hard to manage their time by themselves and study without supervision. Social isolation is another disadvantage of distance learning because studying can be more isolated.<br /><br />Based on your unique circumstances, you can compare the advantages and disadvantages of distance learning over traditional learning and decide which one is right for you. A few years ago, distance education was seen inferior but nowadays all colleges are providing distance learning courses and it is generally considered a way to learn and improve one's life.<br /><br />Contrary to what many people believe, the distance education advantages far more outweigh the distance education disadvantages. Do you agree?<br /><br />Do you think that sonography will be much easy if it was not a distance learning course?<br /><br />How do you manage your time to submit all assignments on time?<br /><br />Do your really have more time to spend with your family when you are doing distance learning class?<br /><br />References:http://www.distance-learning-college-guide.com/index.htmlhttp://www.montgomerycollege.edu/distance/media/distancelearning.swf (video)DMS Administratorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07048570499257838507noreply@blogger.com19
