GYN Ultrasound Malignant Adnexal Conditions Advanced Clinical Training

Learn to evaluate adnexal masses using ultrasound, including imaging techniques used in sonographic evaluation of malignant adnexal conditions. Learn to identify the risk factors for ovarian cancer and evaluate ovarian cancer via ultrasonography. This topic overviews both pre- and postmenopausal adnexal anatomy and how to sonographically differentiate between likely benign, indeterminate, and likely malignant adnexal conditions. Lessons also cover comprehensive examination of borderline and likely malignant adnexal lesions with a review of ovarian cancer and current cancer screening methods. The real-patient scanning cases help develop the requisite hands-on psychomotor skills and cognitive task awareness required to perform both transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasound evaluation of malignant adnexal conditions.

How it Works

Each SonoSim module contains:

  • A Didactic, Cloud-Based, Multimedia Course
  • Real-Time Knowledge Checks & a Mastery Test
  • A Series of Hands-On, Real Patient Scanning Cases Accessed with the SonoSimulator® Ultrasound Probe

The SonoSimulator Ultrasound Probe is a one-time purchase and is your access key to the SonoSim modules you license annually. License to each module is purchased in the first year, and maintained with an annual membership fee. Keep scanning and maintain all your member benefits, including annual access to all your modules, with your low annual membership fee of $295 (complimentary in your first year).

Course Highlights

SonoSim cloud-based, multimedia, didactic courses are created by leading ultrasound experts, and are internet accessible immediately after purchase, on any device. There are knowledge checks with real-time feedback throughout each course, as well as a Mastery Test that is automatically graded.

The course in this module covers topics including:

  • Introduction to Malignant Adnexal Conditions
  • Adnexal Anatomy
  • Evaluation of Adnexal Masses for Malignancy
  • Sonographic Techniques including Doppler Flow
  • Sonographic Characterization of Adnexal Masses
  • Borderline Tumors
  • Ovarian Cancer Overview
  • Ovarian Cancer Screening

SonoSimulator Scanning Cases

The SonoSimulator® helps develop and maintain the critical visuomotor and visuospatial skills that are central to image acquisition and interpretation with real patient imagery, expert tutorials on-demand, and real-time feedback on success.

The 10 real patient scanning cases in this module include and cover:

  • Patient Types: Adult Only, Female
  • Relevant Findings/Pathology: Complex Adnexal Cysts, Germ Cell Tumors, Leiomyomas, Pathologic Free Fluid, Dermoid Cysts, Endometriomas, Ovarian Fibromas
  • Doppler & Imaging Modes: Color-Flow Doppler
  • Scanning Approaches: Transabdominal, Transvaginal
  • Transducer Types: Curvilinear, Transvaginal
  • Special Case Features: Anatomic Layer Removal

Continued Medical Education

Ultrasound is preferred as the first imaging modality used when patient symptoms suggest uterine or other pelvic organ abnormalities. The GYN Ultrasound Malignant Adnexal Conditions Advanced Clinical Module overviews both pre- and postmenopausal adnexal anatomy and how to sonographically differentiate between likely benign, indeterminate, and likely malignant adnexal conditions. Lessons also cover comprehensive examination of borderline and likely malignant adnexal lesions with a review of ovarian cancer and current cancer screening methods. The real-patient scanning cases help develop the requisite hands-on psychomotor skills and cognitive task awareness required to perform both transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasound evaluation of malignant adnexal conditions.
