Zedu Weekly Wrap - 8 May 2026

The team is pretty excited…

and proud to share something we’ve been pouring our hearts (and many late nights) into: our brand-new Ultrasound Physics Simplified Online Module is officially live! 🚀

We’ve all been there as educators – trying to explain impedance or axial resolution only to be met with blank stares. Let’s face it – for most learners, physics has traditionally been dry, abstract, and incredibly hard to relate to in a clinical setting.

The team has worked tirelessly over the past few months to flip that script. We’ve designed a series of lectures with one specific goal – to make the abstract obvious.

This isn’t about memorising formulas for an exam. This course is designed to help every user understand the action and consequence of imaging. We bridge the gap between the “physics how” of image generation and the actual clinical result.

We want to make sure ultrasound users stop fighting the machine and start using physics to their advantage to optimise every scan they perform.

Ideal for your struggling learners: If you have students or trainees who are struggling to grasp the core concepts – or who just can’t see how the math applies to the probe in their hand – this module is the perfect solution. It’s practical, visual, and highly applied.

If you know the value of protected learning time, secure your place early.

P.S. – don’t forget – if something doesn’t quite fit your learning objectives or availability we can design and deliver a program that meets your needs. Don’t tell everyone though – availability is limited.
