************************** Howdy fellow listers.... Mark the Sonographer back from cloudy S.D. I didn't go to SGI but it preceded the AIUM and I heard that the take home message at SGI was nictric oxide is your friend..... One attendant when asked if there was a message to take home responded despondantly "I'm sure there was". There is no doubt that "doing the meeting is work.

At AIUM in SanDiego, where I could look out my $200/day room and see a sign for a small clean room equidistant from the convention center loudly proclaimed rooms for $34/nite....no vancancy of course, but there were several more reasonable hotels in the gaslight district within walking distance to the Marina and Convention center that I checked out and would of gladly pocketed the extra dinero or rented that Harley for $160/day :) Any way the most interesting aspect was the 9-14 week sono finding the nuchal fold thickening >3mm as an indicator for abnormal pregnancy....of course they need more work but the data is looking like as Finberg of Phoenix says "may become the most positive predictor of fetal anomaly.....

Next issue "Quotes from the Podium" Where K. Comstock says "Give me back my room key" and J. Hobins faces one of his 1:400 amnio's gone bad in the grand ballroom... to be continued....

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.
