This scenario will focus on a case-based abdominal sonogram. As the diagnostic medical sonographer, the learner must analyze complex cases and communicate findings appropriately and accurately to the interpreting physician.
Learning Objectives:
- Correlate results from multiple diagnostic sources to obtain a detailed history.
- Employ spatial reasoning to determine sonographic findings.
- Propose findings based on evidence.
Simulation Modality:
Virtual gaming simulation / virtual patientEvalution/Validation:
This simulation’s scenario and script were formally peer-reviewed by two external institutions, then the final simulation was pilot tested by several students on a student testing committee then as part of the Virtu-WIL Student Program’s rollout.
