"Is Timor-Tritsch benign?"!!! Mark, can I use that on my OB/GYN Final??? Your stream-of-consciousness thread is amazing... I really enjoyed this one. :-)

Thanks for the kudos, but me modest? Never happen... one of my earliest memories is standing on the pew between my Mom and Dad singing at the top of my voice, "This Little Light of Mine, I'm Going to Let it Shine" in a Baptist church in Brownfield, Texas. No, modesty is not one of my vices.

Wish we could make the elevation of the Sonographic profession faster. The ARDMS is well respected, by those who know anything about it... it is a good start, but much tedious education of a lot of legislators, administrators, and general public to do yet. But we must keep pushing... hear here, Mark.

Peace, Terry J. DuBose, M.S., RDMS

>The difference betwixt an ultrasound teck and a sonographer....  no harm
intended.....  Here in Texas over half the ultrasound done in OB is by
unreg. "tecks" and maybe her doc watches the video tape at half
speed.....  But I come not to judge cause I do remember when I thought
the cerebellum and cerebrum were the same thang.....  I thought that  it
was like tomato and toe-mato..... silly rabbit.... Kix are for  kids....

we initially thought things were.... Like the portal system....  Tell us
your favorite anatomy mix up won't you.....  I we can't laugh about  how
we got here we can't help the elevation of our successors..... or for
that matter the elevation of ourselves !!!!!        BTW.... I'm amazed TJ
didn't mention one of my favorite textbooks.... and that is "FETAL
SONOGRAPHY"	He's so modest cause he wrote it.... but frankly Nancy
this book has replaced my  Kurtz & Goldberg and I don't even open my
Kobayashi any more :-)   So now I find that I use my Williams OB, then
check out the index on Dubose's FS (as we call it  here, a variation of
Norton Utilities program FF or find file) then onto Callen.... BTW  I've
just received Drose's fetal heart book....  This 30 days to read it
sounds nice but they don't understand the stack of "to read" is 45days
long ;-)   God knows I love the good reference book like Buyse's "Birth
Defect Encyclopedia"   Now if only I can get all the  info together on
the computer...... BTW got the Platypus disk the other day....anyone else
play with it ????     Maybe that is the answer to my "check all sources
first"

>Next:.......  Stupid questions I've asked in class  "Is Timor-Tritsch
benign?"  "How do you improve an inferior vena cava?"  and lately....
>"At what age do babies start changing their own diaper?"  you see I'm
not qualified to be a dad..........  help      8-|
