Ultrasound Interest Group

The goal of the Ultrasound Student Interest Group (USIG) is to provide opportunities for medical students to receive a more expansive education in ultrasound that they can use during their medical training as well as their careers. Ultrasound is a non-invasive, low-cost imaging technique that when used appropriately has a high diagnostic power for many common conditions. As medicine moves to reduce unnecessary imaging studies and use safer and more cost-effective imaging techniques, clinician-performed and generalist ultrasound is becoming increasingly advocated.
