Ovaries and fallopian tubes ultrasound training - SonoSim

GYN Ultrasound Normal Adnexa Advanced Clinical Training

Learn when and how to use the two different imaging approaches (transvaginal and transabdominal) to evaluate the normal nonpregnant female adnexa. Optimal transducer selection, patient preparation and positioning, and scanning techniques are reviewed. Sonographic anatomy of the normal adnexa is presented; how it changes throughout the ovarian cycle and how it changes as women age are specifically discussed. The course concludes with case studies on common normal adnexa ultrasound findings. The ten real-patient scanning cases help develop and maintain the critical visuomotor and visuospatial skills that are central to normal adnexa ultrasound image acquisition and interpretation. Includes an overview of normal female pelvis anatomy and physiology as a baseline.

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:

  • Gynecologic Ultrasound of Normal Adnexa
  • Normal Adnexal Anatomy
  • Female Pelvis Physiology, including Menstruation and Ovarian Cycles
  • Sonographic Anatomy of the Adnexa
  • Ultrasound Imaging Techniques for Ovary and Fallopian Tube Evaluation
  • Adnexal Masses Case Studies including Hemorrhagic Cyst

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: Postpubertal Patient Cases, Postmenopausal Patient Cases, Menstrual Cycle-Related Ovarian Changes (Ovarian Follicles, Ovarian Follicular Cysts, Corpus Luteum, Posterior Cul-De-Sac Physiologic Free Fluid)
  • 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 the optimal imaging modality for the evaluation of the adnexa and preferred as the first imaging modality used when patient symptoms suggest ovarian or other pelvic organ abnormalities. The adnexa have been defined as including the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and supporting ligaments. The GYN Ultrasound Normal Adnexa Advanced Clinical Module begins with an overview of normal female pelvis anatomy and physiology. Then learn when and how to use the two different imaging approaches (transvaginal and transabdominal) to evaluate the normal nonpregnant female adnexa. Optimal transducer selection, patient preparation and positioning, and scanning techniques are reviewed. Sonographic anatomy of the normal adnexa is presented; how it changes throughout the ovarian cycle and how it changes as women age are specifically discussed. The course concludes with case studies on common adnexal findings. The ten real-patient scanning cases help develop and maintain the critical visuomotor and visuospatial skills that are central to ultrasound image acquisition and interpretation.
