Re: Ultrasound--diagnosis or treatment?From: AKJENNINGS@aol.comWed Feb 21 11:37:17 2001
Ultrasound technologists should ONLY describe what they see when making a written report. For example, a report should say "Inhomogeneous, solid appearing mass seen without increased blood flow. The measurements are ..." instead of "Fibroid". We are not physicians, and we open ourselves up for liability when we over step our position. If the physician ask what we think, then I would tell the doctor what I think the diagnosis and follow up should be. I would not put it in writing. They are the doctors, and we are the technologists.

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.
