Canon Medical Systems has hosted two ultrasound study days with a clinical focus, one in London and one in York.

Entitled ‘State-of-the-art advanced ultrasound technology and its clinical uses’, the London course was aimed at sonographers, radiologists and registrars.  It provided an opportunity for delegates to consolidate and advance their ultrasound knowledge, with leading experts in the field sharing experience of new technologies and their daily use, and clinical demonstrations.

The programme opened with ‘Advanced ultrasound technologies and their everyday clinical uses’, presented by Professor Adrian Lim from Charing Cross Hospital.  Dawn McDonald from James Paget Hospital spoke on ‘Breast elastography: Its potential role in breast disease and implications for future management in benign findings’.  This was followed by Professor John Simpson from Evelina Hospital speaking on ‘Advanced fetal cardiology’.
