Worldwide Ultrasound Resource Provides Education Without Borders

PHILADELPHIA -- SonoWorld.com, the world's largest and most-visited online ultrasound education web site, has launched the SonoWorld Masters Lecture Series, a series of on-demand, streaming-video presentations by the

world's foremost authorities on diagnostic ultrasound. Ultrasound professionals can view these interactive lectures at their own computer, on demand. The SonoWorld web site (http://www.sonoworld.com) functions as a virtual conference center where participants can learn the most up-to-date and innovative sonography techniques from world-renowned researchers, clinicians and educators. There is no cost for registered SonoWorld members.

SonoWorld Members Learn Directly From Ultrasound Pioneers and Experts

From reviewing the basics to presenting innovative state-of-the-art research and technique, the SonoWorld Masters Lecture Series offers ultrasound professionals a unique opportunity to enhance their skills and knowledge.

Christopher R. B. Merritt, MD, Director of Medical Content Development for SonoWorld's Masters Lecture Series, says, "In an ever-evolving field like ultrasound, one of the most important means of learning is to interact with and learn from the pioneers and experts who understand the topic through their own research and clinical application after years in the field. SonoWorld is fortunate to feature lecturers of this stature and in-depth experience who are also expert in disseminating their knowledge in these didactic sessions."

Potential to Improve Healthcare Worldwide

Barry B. Goldberg, MD, Chairman, SonoWorld Medical Advisory Board, says, "Previously this level of material has been available almost exclusively at conventions and conferences in a live format and has reached only the few individuals fortunate enough to attend a live event. The Masters Lecture Series provides educational resources to thousands of people online every day, including many practitioners in developing countries. Ultimately, we hope that this resource will contribute to more effective healthcare delivery worldwide."
