M-Turbo for Edinburgh ultrasound training

Alan Thomas, Dr Alice Murray, Dr Vicki Noble and Su Bassi with the SonoSite M-Turbo.
The SonoSite M-Turbo point-of-care ultrasound system has been judged an ideal training tool by Matthew Reed, consultant and honorary senior lecturer in emergency medicine at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh.
Dr Reed explained: “It is now a formal requirement for emergency physicians in the UK to be trained in ultrasound. Edinburgh is a large proactive department with a substantial teaching programme, so it was essential to invest in ultrasound equipment for the trust to retain its training status.”
