GTP ultrasound courses – timeline
Since 2017, we have been offering ultrasound courses internationally. These courses provide you with the opportunity to explore typical findings alongside experienced course leaders in various regions and also allows you to discover parts of the respective country during your free time. The courses are mainly aimed at young residents who learn together with the residents of the specialist programme and young local specialists with little or no prior experience in sonography.
In 2021, the GTP received a 5-year funding from EKFS to professionalize and integrate course structures locally, as well as to establish the “EKFS GPT International Paediatric Ultrasound Network”.
Basic course
Sonography of the skull, thorax and abdomen for basic diagnosis of pathologies and performance of interventions such as pleural puncture.
Echocardiography
Cardiac sonography focusing on mastering key sectional views and recognizing common pathologies.
