The Pelvic Floor Imaging Online Course is valuable to her Graduates. Get the chance to learn and improve your skill on perineal scan and using 4Dview with guidance from experienced preceptors.

I am a research assistant, and I am happy to learn the basics from E-BOOKs and Education Videos in Module One and complete the course step-by-step by finishing all required “HOMEWORK” in seven modules. Feedback from my preceptor helps me learn from errors and improve my skill in acquiring and analyzing scan volume.

I am happy to finish my course on my schedule. It allows me to increase my knowledge and improve my skill unstressful to my daily clinical duties.

This course is very reasonable. I learned step by step. Through e-mail, I gradually learned all the courses of pelvic floor ultrasound. The preceptor replied to the e-mail in time and explained each question in detail. My preceptor was very good.

I was very lucky. During my study, the Module6 about sling and mesh was opened, and I learned the postoperative image evaluation. This part is very important for me.

Especially in the last Module7, the professor also gave a lot of suggestions on the use of 4D software through video conference. Some problems of daily work were also given help in the meeting.

This is a very precious chance to learn the pelvic floor ultrasound systemically. The education video illustrated the operation and detailed images. It is easy to follow, though my English is not very good. Prof. Dietz is a very nice mentor. He gave me great instructions based on my work step by step. I get much improvement in prolapse assessment, hiatal measurement, childbirth trauma investigation, and sling and mesh imaging during the training time. Thanks to IUGA and Prof. Dietz for providing such a nice course.

The course was easy to follow and provided helpful resources. I’m looking forward to the slings and meshes content soon to be released. It may help to know that the first few modules could easily be achieved by a sonographer who performs routine pelvic studies. The last module was invaluable as case reviews took place, and live manipulation of volume data in 4D view with my preceptor gave me confidence in my capability. The most valuable learning experience is to have an expert critique your technique, especially the 4D puborectalis images and tomographic anal sphincter slices.

There’s always something to learn regardless of how experienced or how long we’ve scanned for. Live case discussion over videoconference meant there was forum for seeking opinion regarding diagnosis and opportunity to ask other questions.

I am an obstetrician and gynaecologist. I joined this course to learn about pelvic floor imaging, which is a relatively newer application of ultrasound in gynaecology. I had heard Prof Dietz in Singapore talking about this and that proved to be the catalyst for joining this course. The course certainly gave me another diagnostic tool to assess and manage women with vaginal prolapse and even anal sphincter trauma during child birth. This modality of diagnostic tool shows the anatomical basis for the pathology as well as objectively quantifies the pathology. It also helps in post-operative evaluation.

The course is well constructed and there are no unnecessary inclusions. Luckily, my preceptor was very good too. He was always promptly available for advice and comments.

I found the course useful and it was not too difficult to learn ultrasound by remote teaching.
