    Description
    A course of instruction in the specialized techniques of noninvasive testing of the human vascular system and the evaluation of vascular pathophysiology. Lectures will stress the performance and analysis of vascular ultrasound scanning, spectral analysis and the interpretation of scanning and non-scanning modalities for vascular testing. The classroom laboratory provides advanced instruction in the topics and performance of diagnostics tests in vascular technology. The theory, calibration, operation and clinical application of specified diagnostic medical instrumentation will be applied. Hospital based laboratory sessions are conducted in vascular laboratories in local hospitals, with instruction in techniques of duplex scanning of the cerebrovascular and lower-extremity and abdominal vasculature.
