Basic competencies in obstetric-gynecological ultrasound are no longer just an asset but have become a requirement for the current practice of the specialty. The general specialist needs to incorporate specific knowledge and skills. In this course, knowledge acquisition is achieved through a methodology based on the extensive use of images, enabling students to detect abnormalities and address pathology with clear diagnostic and management algorithms for the most common obstetric and gynecological conditions. On the other hand, skill acquisition is ensured through simulation sessions and live workshops. This course allows students to acquire both components, knowledge and skills, in the most integrated and efficient way possible, ensuring direct transferability to clinical practice.
This course will help specialists in Gynecology and Obstetrics to work collaboratively with other experts, aiming to achieve early and accurate diagnoses, as well as improving women’s reproductive health.
