Obstetric and Gynaecological Ultrasound

2nd & 3rd trimester OB/GY Ultrasound

2nd &3rd trimester OB US

OBSTETRIC & GYNAECOLOGICAL ULTRASOUND

What does OB mean on an ultrasound?

How is an obstetric ultrasound done?

How is pregnancy scan done?

How does an ultrasound work for pregnancy?

This is a comprehensive app in the basic fundamentals of ultrasound physics, routine scan protocols for performing trans abdominal and transvaginal obstetrical ultrasound, recognition of:

normal fetal anatomy

1st trimester

2nd trimester

3rd trimester - GI, GU, CNS, skeletal, cardiac, face, thorax, applying calipers and known landmarks for measuring fetal parameters, amniotic fluid, normal and abnormal placental anatomy, evaluate placenta position and grade, sonography of the multiple gestation, and review 1st trimester unsuccessful pregnancies and sonographic findings of common abnormal fetal pathology.

It also involves review of normal gynecological anatomy and physiology (uterus, ovaries), uterine and ovarian pathology, identifies normal sonographic anatomy of the uterus and ovaries, describes routine scan protocols, and measurements for performing transabdominal and transvaginal gynecological ultrasound, normal and abnormal imaging characteristics of ovarian and uterine pathology as well as Doppler ultrasound in Obstetrics and gynaecology.

Learning Outcomes:

1. Explain the principles and physics of ultrasound.

2. Describe the use of ultrasound to establish dating criteria in pregnancy.

3. Demonstrate ability to use ultrasound to find the structures reported on 1st through 3rd trimester obstetric examinations.

4. Identify the normal anatomy that can be seen on obstetric ultrasound.

5. Identify abnormalities in obstetrics at ultrasound

6. Describe the sonographic findings and implications of the more commonly noted fetal anomalies seen during an obstetric ultrasound.

7. Appreciate the components of fetal well-being noted by ultrasound.

8. Understand the utility of Doppler ultrasound and its uses during in obstetrics and gynaecology.

9. Review literature appropriate for the obstetrical, medical or surgical conditions of the patient and fetus.

10. Demonstrate ability to methodically perform obstetrical ultrasound scan protocol.

11. Identify the cross sectional and sonographic anatomy of the female pelvis.

12. Review gynecological physiology and pathology.

13. Demonstrate ability to carry out gynecological ultrasound.

Writing the Ultrasound Report

Real-time ultrasound is especially useful for imaging mobile subjects, such as the fetus or heart, and for quickly viewing an organ from different orientations.
