Establishment of layered training system of ultrasound medicine based on physician and sonographer collaboration / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

In order to meet the social demand for ultrasound talents, a layered training system of ultrasound medical talents suitable for China's national conditions has been explored. The department of ultrasound of West China Hospital of Sichuan University has formulated and implemented a "three-layers" ultrasound education and training system in combination with its own reality. The first layer mainly refers mastering the basic ultrasound examination ability mainly through relevant ultrasound theoretical knowledge and basic operation skills training. The second layer is based on the first level to further master the ability of ultrasound diagnosis and differential diagnosis of common and frequently occurring diseases in various systems, and to be capable of engaging in basic ultrasound teaching and scientific research. The third layer means mastering the ability of ultrasound diagnosis, evaluation and interventional diagnosis and treatment of difficult and specialized diseases, grasping the latest development direction of the sub-specialty, and having the ability to engage in ultrasound teaching and clinical research. The results show that the "three-layers" ultrasound education and training system conforms to China's national conditions and is worthy of reference and promotion.
