Dear Mike,

Can you send images of transabdominal ultrasound of that patient where sagitally scanned vaginal stripe could be displaid? The image must be sent through computer and if digitized into *.jpg variant woun't occupy much space on the disk and can be posted in attachment to the letter.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
