Course curriculum

  • Features of duplex examination of carotid and vertebral arteries
  • Assessment of intima-media thickness and cardiovascular risk
  • Description of atherosclerotic plaques. Diagnostic criteria for unstable and complicated atherosclerotic plaques
  • Morphological and hemodynamic analysis of stenoses. Comparison of methods and criteria for assessing the severity of carotid stenoses
  • Diagnosis of vertebral artery pathology: subclavian-vertebral steal, rotational compression syndrome, and stenoses
  • Non-atherosclerotic pathology of the carotid arteries: arteritis, deformities
  • Features of duplex examination of intracranial arteries
  • Diagnosis of intracranial hypertension
  • Assessment of intracranial stenoses
  • Criteria for vasospasm and assessment of its severity
  • Features of assessing intracranial collateralization

An immersion in the modern diagnosis of brachiocephalic and intracranial arteries. You will master the hemodynamic assessment of stenoses, learn to compile a report competently, and consolidate your skills in master classes and seminars.

Professional development and practical skills that meet modern standards.

Scientific director of MEDTRAIN. 22 years of clinical work in ultrasound diagnostics; 13+ years of training physicians: from basic echocardiography to expert vascular ultrasound and functional diagnostics.

Core competencies

  • Echocardiography (quantitative chamber assessment, diastole, valvular defects, prostheses, GLS/Strain).
  • Vascular ultrasound (carotid territory, transcranial studies, arteries/veins of the lower extremities, visceral and renal vessels, post-procedural states).
  • Abdominal ultrasound, obstetrics and gynecology (basic and advanced protocols).
  • Internal quality audit and report standardization.

Educational track

  • Abdominal Ultrasound Registry Review — Gulfcoast Ultrasound Institute, 2021.
  • Duplex/Color Evaluation of Venous Insufficiency — Gulfcoast, 2021.
  • Best of Echo Florida, 2022.
  • Adult Echocardiography — Gulfcoast, 2022.
  • OB/GYN Ultrasound Registry Review — Gulfcoast, 2022.
  • Advanced Echo — ASE Learning Hub, 2023.
  • Destination + Livestream Courses — Mayo Clinic, 2023.
  • ASE RPVI Online Review Course, 2023.
  • SVM Comprehensive Review of Vascular Ultrasound, 2023.
The programs listed are completed courses and reviews. We deliberately do not claim certificates that the course does not formally award.

Memberships and roles

  • Member of AIUM (The American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine).
  • President of the Eurasian Association of Ultrasound and Functional Diagnostics Specialists.

Teaching approach

  • Only validated protocols and clear if/then algorithms.
  • Plenty of demonstrations and analysis of real cases.
  • Measurement checklists and report templates ready for audit.
  • A clear link between «criterion → clinical decision» so that your reports are accepted at the MDT without questions.

What participants gain

  • A working system: what to measure, how to index, how to formulate conclusions.
  • A materials package: checklists, normal-value tables, report templates.
  • Feedback and support in the chat.
