International Course in Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound

Announcement

Given the current circumstances due to the spread of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) including travel restrictions put in place by many countries which will last for an unknown time frame also beyond this crisis, the International CEUS Course in Munich, is planned to go ahead as a hybrid course. We are currently developing a solution to hold this course on-line and life in Munich. Lecturers who are unable to travel will present their lectures online. Additionally, we work to have an online Life Webinar meeting so that we could share our course worldwide.

For the life course a complex hygiene concept was developed consisting of marked seats with a minimum distance to the nearest person. The 2G rule will be implemented in the course, persons who recovered from COVID or fully vaccinated persons are admitted to the course. Additionally, mobile disinfection will be provided all day long.

During this course there will again be time for your questions and comments. Additionally, on the pre-course day representatives from the industry will inform you about latest and technical developments to come.

We hope you will benefit from attending this course and we wish you a successful educational course and a joyful stay in Munich.

Dear colleagues,

Never before has a new technique changed the field of ultrasound in such a revolutionary way like the use of ultrasound contrast media. The International CEUS Course is aiming at two goals: Understanding the basics of CEUS, US machines and settings and secondly deepening the understanding the benefit of using contrast agents in hepatic and extrahepatic diseases.
A renowned national and international faculty, well known for their extensive experience and contributions in CEUS, will give the participants a wealth of practical knowledge that can be used immediately for your daily practice. Lectures covering all the primary applications and the latest scientific research will be reinforced with hands-on training or interactive case reviews during the workshops.
During this course there will be time again for individual training on the US machines and to work on clinical cases - from easy to difficult ones to interpret. During the pre-course day representatives from the industry will inform you about latest and future technical developments.

The pre-course day will end by hands on sessions on the latest US devices.
We hope you will benefit from attending this course -a European School project- which again is supported by the EFSUMB (European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology).
We wish you a successful educational course and a joyful stay in Munich
