Zedu Weekly Wrap – 17 November 2023
Hi team…
we’re rapidly diving towards the end of the year with the calendar – social and work – both filling fast! If you want ultrasound training before the end of the 2023 you had better double check your itinerary as there are less than a handful of days left. Get in quick!
In more general news, there’s plenty of ultrasound research and info to take a look at this week, including:
- The latest from MetroHealth Emergency Ultrasound (@MH_EMultrasound) and Matt Tabbut (@mtabbut) about POCUS for pleural fluid (17 November)
- A piece in the Journal of Vascular Access – ‘Femoral venous access: State of the art and future perspectives’ (13 November).
That’s all for now – see you next week …
