Explore the most common and easily missed pathologies seen during abdominal ultrasound—position by position—through the lens of the SonoPath SDEP® (Sonographic Diagnostic Efficiency Protocol). This focused session walks you through each SDEP® scan point, starting with normal anatomy and building toward the frequent and occasional pathologies you’re most likely to encounter in practice. Learn how to recognize subtle changes, improve image optimisation, and avoid overlooking key findings. Perfect for sonographers who want to elevate their diagnostic accuracy and scan with purpose, every time.
- Develop a sharp eye for pathology by mastering what “normal” looks like—so you can spot abnormalities faster and with greater accuracy.
- Learn what to look for in real-world presentations of urinary, adrenal, GI, pancreatic, hepatic, splenic, and ascitic pathology—plus how to handle unexpected findings with confidence.
- Discover how SDEP® repetition improves your diagnostic precision and helps you catch what others miss.
- Gain practical techniques to scan around foreign bodies, masses, or challenging anatomy using alternate views, intercostal approaches, and patient repositioning.
