GTP ultrasound courses – timeline
Since 2017, we have been offering ultrasound courses outside Germany. Here you have the opportunity to examine typical findings with experienced course leaders in that region and get to know parts of the respective country in 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 experience in sonography.
In 2021, the GTP has received a 5-year funding through the EKFS to professionalise and locally embed the course structures and 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 punctures
Echocardiography
Sonography of the heart with learning of the most important sectional planes and pathologies.
