Use of a novel anthropomorphic prostate simulator in a prostate brachytherapy transrectal ultrasound imaging workshop for medical physicists
Ultrasound imaging forms a critical component of low-dose-rate (LDR) transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) prostate brachytherapy (PBT) planning and treatment. However, ultrasound imaging training is not required as part of radiation oncology training programs, nor does any objective competency measure exist to independently assess performance [1]. The American Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) only requires that residents treat five interstitial brachytherapy cases to graduate from a radiation oncology residency but does not provide a specific competency-based model to determine if these five cases will provide the re...

A new method of wirelessly recharging medical device batteries with ultrasound
Human beings don't come with power sockets, but a growing numbers of us have medical implants that run off electricity. To keep our bionic body parts from powering down, a group of Arizona researchers is developing a safe, noninvasive, and efficient means of wireless power transmission through body tissue. The team presents their findings at the 166th meeting of the Acoustical Society of America, being held Dec. 2 - 6 in San Francisco, Calif.

Hospitalists ’ Reflections Offer Hope and Optimism for the Coming Years
As we come to the close of 2022, we take a moment to reflect on what we’ve learned these last few years, and more importantly, what new challenges and opportunities lie ahead. We spoke with hospitalists and leaders from a variety of institutions to get their feedback. The views they’ve shared are their own and not those of their institutions. Dr. Thompson Rachel Thompson, MD, MPH, FACP, SFHM, SHM president, is the chief medical officer at Snoqualmie Valley Hospital and Public Health District in Snoqualmie, Wash. Dr. Thompson says the most important lesson hospitalists have learned in the last three years is that the...

Alterations in the Mechanical Response of Deep Dorsal Neck Muscles in Individuals Experiencing Whiplash-Associated Disorders Compared to Healthy Controls: An Ultrasound Study
Conclusions These findings indicate that the mechanical responses of the deep dorsal neck muscles differ between individuals with WAD and healthy controls, possibly reflecting that these muscles use altered strategies while performing a neck extension task. This finding provides new insight into neck muscles pathology in patients with chronic WAD and may help improve rehabilitation programs.

Continuing Education for the Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist: Ultrasound-Guided Peripheral Intravenous Access
J Contin Educ Nurs. 2021 Oct;52(10):489-492. doi: 10.3928/00220124-20210913-09. Epub 2021 Oct 1.ABSTRACTVascular access is critical in the perioperative arena and is a requirement for most surgical procedures. The goals of this project were to increase knowledge among certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs) by providing a focused didactic and simulation course on ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous access and to assess the confidence and comfort levels of performing ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous access before and after the course. A combined didactic and simulation ultrasound-based education course ...
