Terry: That's exactly what we do in our practice. If my tech (who is superb) finds any abnormality, she calls me in to review the scan real time. One other thing that we do that I think is very important. Aside from diagnosis of fetal death in utero or blighted ovum, any other finding that would affect the patient's management where ultrasound is the only modality for diagnosis is confirmed by a second ultrasound from another sonographer.

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.
