The College will offer a two-day course on point-of-care ultrasound, including hands-on experience with live models and simulators, twice this November.


ACP is offering “Point-of-Care Ultrasound: Foundational Skills for Internists,” a two-day course featuring small-group, intensive, live learning in November.

Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is being used by an increasing number of internal medicine specialists and subspecialists to improve the timeliness and accuracy of diagnosis. ACP is collaborating with other professional societies to facilitate implementation of appropriate uses of POCUS throughout internal medicine training and practice.

By participating in the course, get comprehensive ultrasound training from expert faculty that is applicable to a variety of care settings. Learn when to use ultrasound to improve your diagnostic capabilities, and gain hands-on experience and feedback on how to use it, with live models and simulators. Interactive, online modules will also be provided to all registrants.

Early-bird pricing is available now through Sept. 15. The course will be offered Thursday and Friday, Nov. 7 and 8, and again on Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 9 and 10, in Rosemont, Ill. Registration information is online.
