The Comprehensive TVS (Transvaginal Ultrasound) Scan Program offers a carefully crafted curriculum that begins with fundamentals like knobology and 2D gynecological ultrasound methodology and systematically progresses to cover pelvic pathologies. Learning is enhanced through individualized, hands-on sessions using a state-of-the-art simulator. The extensive case library provides an opportunity for in-depth learning of Endovaginal / Fertility / Gynaecology / Pelvic ultrasound (US) scans throughout the program. Our approach has consistently demonstrated its effectiveness.

Content: Theory and hands-on

• Ultrasound physics (practical knowledge)
• Methodology of 2D gynaecological scans
• Study of normal pelvic anatomy on 2D
• Study of abnormal pelvic anatomy on 2D

Key Benefits / Takeaways:

1. Theoretical Knowledge: The program provides evidence-based theoretical knowledge to complement practical training.
2. World-Class Scan Simulator: The program utilizes a state-of-the-art scan simulator to aid in ultrasound training.
3. Extensive Case Library: The simulator is loaded with a library of cases covering gynaecology, infertility, and early pregnancy scenarios, allowing participants to practice on a wide range of cases.
4. Hands-on Training: Participants are trained in probe orientation, probe movements and study of pelvic anatomy, both normal and abnormal.
5. Virtual Guidance: Virtual guidance is offered during scans to help participants achieve the correct scanning planes, measurements, and understand normal and abnormal morphology.
6. Individual hands-on practice: Practice time is extensive, and guidance is via the scan trainer as well as remote assistance by the faculty.
7. Remote Access: Participants have remote access to modules they have attempted, allowing them to review their learning.
8. Real-life Cases: The simulator includes real-life images thereby imparting a real-time experience.

Participant Benefits:

1. Allows sub-fertility and infertility specialists to improve their techniques without risk to real patients, helps builds confidence and competency.
2. Provides life-like pelvic anatomy and various clinical conditions, enabling specialists to encounter and learn to diagnose a wide range of fertility-related issues.
3. Improving their diagnostic skills, leading to better identification of subtle abnormalities that could affect fertility treatments.
4. Timely feedback, allowing specialists to correct their technique, optimize probe placement, and improve image interpretation, accelerating learning and proficiency.
5. Rework on cases as many times as you want, till you master them.
6. An option for post-program virtual mentoring, if needed.
