Workshop description
The International Bowel Ultrasound Group e.V. is planning the 3rd IBUSXP – Masterclass and certification for the experienced IUS performer in Guangzhou, China, under the medical lead of Prof. Xiang Gao from The Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University.
The primary aim of this workshop is to establish standardized, high-quality techniques for performing IUS examination among physicians with minimum 300 performed procedures over the last 3 years.
The workshop consists of 2 parts:
- Theoretical and didactic training: participants will engage in an interactive, self-directed eLearning course via IBUS
- Practical training: the hands-on experience component will be facilitated through an introductory face-to-face course involving sessions with patients
Upon completion of the workshop, participants will undergo theoretical and practical exams. Those who successfully pass the course will receive an IBUS Level 1 Certificate (no further Module 2 or 3 required).
