    Description
    This course is to provide the DMS student with an introduction to vascular scanning and evaluating hemodynamics or blood flow within the body; specifically the carotid artery, and the arteries and veins of the extremities. The course will introduce duplex imaging in the normal vessel and the expected outcomes when scanning a diseased or stenotic vessel. The student will learn to correlate related diagnostic imaging procedures (angiogram, MRA and CT) with the sonographic appearances.
