Students will be practicing assigned images under the direction of experienced faculty members.

“This unique collaboration provides the opportunity for students to enhance their practical skills before starting their clinical rotations,” said Jordan Thomason, DMS Instructor and Clinical Coordinator. “With our state-of-the-art lab and 3D probes, students can practice various scanning techniques and protocols with direct patient interaction under the guidance of an instructor.”

Thomason said that ultrasound sessions are beneficial for both the students and the moms-to-be. “Most women enjoy knowing they are helping with our students’ education and are always excited to get another peek at their babies,” she says. “Also, getting to see a live baby on the screen is a wonderful opportunity for our students.”
