DMUT 2050

This course focuses on the anatomy, physiology, congenital anomalies and pathologies of the female and male reproductive system. It provides an opportunity for the students to enhance their knowledge of the pathological processes that affect patients with an emphasis on ovarian, uterine, testicular and breast abnormalities. Critical evaluation of these pathologies and their sonographic characteristics will be fully explored. Students will develop sonographic scanning techniques specific to transabdominal pelvic ultrasounds as well as practice transvaginal, scrotal and breast imaging techniques in a simulated environment. This course will focus on providing care to diverse patient populations to include transgender patients and patients with intersex conditions. This course also provides the opportunity for students to develop leadership skills through mentorship of first year ultrasound students.
