Emergency Ultrasound Canada

Ever imagined a time when you as an Emergency Physician could look for abdominal aortic aneurysms or a hemoperitoneum in trauma in your department?   Just starting to use ultrasound to insert central venous lines?

Many Emergency Departments are recognizing the benefits of focused ultrasound performed in the department by trained staff. 

In Canada, training and accreditation standards for emergency ultrasound are overseen by the Canadian Emergency Ultrasound Society (CEUS). Courses are aimed at those wishing to start using ultrasound in their clinical practice, or to expand their skills. Courses are run by experienced specialists in Emergency Medicine.
