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 Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
  • Sonographic Imaging Techniques for Evaluating the Endometrium
  • Case Studies including Endometrial Polyps, Submucosal Leiomyomas, Endometrial Adhesions, Subinvolution of the Placental Site, Endometrial Cancer, and Tamoxifen Effect on Endometrium

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 5 real patient scanning cases in this module include and cover:

  • Patient Types: Adult Only, Female
  • Relevant Findings/Pathology: Endometrial Adhesions, Retained Products of Conception, Endometrial Polyps, Leiomyomas, Pathologic Free Fluid In and Around Uterus, Color Doppler Evaluation of Adnexal Structures
  • 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 uterus and preferred as the first imaging modality used when patient symptoms suggest uterine abnormalities. This GYN Ultrasound of Nonpregnant Abnormal Uterus Advanced Clinical Module Part 2 overviews the classifications and potential causes behind abnormal uterine bleeding and discusses techniques to evaluate the endometrium. The course thoroughly looks at imaging characteristics, diagnostic criteria, relevant Doppler adjuncts, and widely accepted management guidelines of pertinent endometrial conditions; these conditions include endometrial polyps, submucosal leiomyomas, endometrial adhesions, retained products of conception, arteriovenous malformations, endometrial cancer, endometrial hyperplasia, and the effect of tamoxifen on the endometrium. This module primarily focuses on image acquisition by transvaginal approach and 3D ultrasound.
