Good afternoon everyone,
Hope everyone had a wonderful break! USIG will be having its final meeting for this semester this Thursday (11/30) from 5-7p in HG-611. Dr. Warkentine from Emergency Medicine will be talking about biliary scanning and pathology. He has worked with us on an event or two in the past and is a really good teacher. If you're interested in getting a little better at using ultrasound for GI imaging, come check this event out. Please sign up before the event if you are planning to attend and remove it if you change your mind so we can get enough resources for everyone to have some quality scanning time.
