Stories can help us understand behaviors often better than quantitative data. So many interesting themes came up in this #impocus piece. What themes did we miss in your experiences?
Great work by our own Dr. Christopher Smith, @IMSonoSC, @Sono4Pyro, Dr. Ron Shope, and @NoOffPosition. link.springer.com/epdf/10.11…

Ambulatory pocus has key differences to inpatient pocus. We should acknowledge these and tailor training to trainees and faculty accordingly says @nilan_schnure. I love this slide! #IMPOCUS #MedEd @DRsonosRD @AIUMultrasound.

@M_ArmstrongDO had a great teaching point today in #OHSUPOCUSFellows conference. Which image shows the preferred way to measure the vena contracta of a regurgitant jet? A) The jet oriented more vertically

Looks like a little controversy at here. Best way is to measure with your beam perpendicular to the flow of the jet (so jet oriented horizontally on the screen). Key here is that the axial resolution is better than the lateral resolution. I try to remember 0.7 cm for severe.
