Breast Ultrasound Course for Surgeons

The course has been known as the Frenchay Breast Ultrasound Course, but our Breast Unit has moved to new premises at Southmead Hospital, the other large acute hospital in North Bristol NHS Trust. We have therefore renamed it The Bristol Breast Ultrasound Course.

This two day course is aimed primarily at breast surgeons and clinicians, consultants, SAS doctors, trainees or others. Breast Ultrasound Course

You may have never picked up an ultrasound probe before, but recognised the value of using it in the clinic or theatre. Or you may be experienced in using it, but want to know a bit more, or you may want some official accreditation of your skills.

The course runs twice a year.

15th and 16th March 2012 - Now fully booked
18th and 19th October 2012

We aim to have some 15-20 participants on each one, a small enough number to allow the hands on experience on the workstations.

The course takes place over two days, a Thursday and Friday. There are lectures in the mornings and practical work in the afternoons.

The course fee is £300 which includes lunches and also a complimentary copy of our book “Interventional Ultrasound of the Breast” which contains some of the course material. Other course material will be supplied on a CD.
