We’ve been full throttle this week…

with courses buzzing with clinicians sharpening their skills across eFAST, DVT, and Nerve Blocks — and we’ve seen some absolute scanning gold along the way (yes, we’re still talking about that perfect gallbladder image from Tuesday).

It’s always inspiring to see people bring their A-game — asking smart questions, challenging themselves, and walking away more confident with a probe in hand. Whether you’re just starting your ultrasound journey or levelling up, the momentum is real and the vibe is strong.

And to keep that vibe vibing, why not use this long weekend as an oportunity to catch up with the latest news – check out🚀✨

• A POCUS protocol for pediatric cardiac arrest from the USGel Podcast (6 June)
• A Sonographer Career Framework: Potential Positive and Negative Impacts on the Sonographer and Other Stakeholders in Sonography (3 June)

And don’t forget – if you are planning to use your CME for a ultrasound training and system bundle be sure to get in touch with Michael over the next week or so to get the ball rolling – time will soon be short 🙂

Plenty more in the pipeline — stay tuned, stay curious, and as always, keep scanning.

See you next week

Mike and Suean
