Hey everyone – hope you all managed a some R&R and only slight overindulgence over Easter.

Everyone here had a great break – we even managed to escape the confines of the city for the beach!

However the lure of work beckoned earlier than anticipated, and rather than let you down with no #weeklywrap here we are.

Some call it workaholic-ism – others call it passion.

I know which description I prefer.

See you next week

Suean and Mike

P.S. – don’t forget to check out the ultrasound gems from the #coachingcorner anytime on our website.

1/ Thought of doing a quick #tweetorial on image acquisition for #POCUS friends starting to do #VExUS
It's kind of "how I do it" guide and not necessarily optimized for research.
