Excellence and Innovation
Welcome to the Australasian Society for Ultrasound in Medicine 2012 42nd Annual Scientific Meeting.
Welcome
The Australasian Society for Ultrasound in Medicine (ASUM) is an Australian and New Zealand multidisciplinary society whose mission is to advance the clinical practice of medical ultrasound for the highest standards of patient care. As the peak professional society, ASUM’s Annual Scientific Meeting is the premier event of the ultrasound calendar. This year’s overarching theme is ‘Excellence and Innovation’ which aims to ensure the comprehensive program provides delegates with the clinical theory and practical hands on experience that they require for their professional development. Our venue is the Hilton hotel in the beautiful harbour city of Sydney.
The Program will feature three days of lectures and workshops from international, national and local experts. Please make sure you check our speaker page on the website for the latest information over the coming months.
The conference program will focus on current and new ultrasound practices and technology across Obstetrics, Gynaecology, Vascular, MSK, General, Point of Care and Paediatrics. With a focus on current and future developments in ultrasound practice, the conference brings an opportunity to refine your current skills, learn new skills and provides a great opportunity to share and learn with past and new colleagues. Plenary talks will allow a fascinating look into the use of ultrasound at Taronga Zoo and an exploration of how e-commerce and IT innovations affect modern practice. Our popular workshops will have a range of fresh surprises and our registrar days will be a must attend for all RANZCOG and RANZCR trainees. There might even be a little touch of celebrity! The exhibition will provide delegates with quality face to face time with key stakeholders in the industry.
ASUM encourages all Gynaecologists, Radiologists, Sonographers, Radiographers, Technologists, Vascular Surgeons, Nuclear Physicians, Musculo Skeletal Surgeons, Sonologists, Scientists, Physicists, General Practitioners, Sports Physicians, Neonatal Physicians, Emergency Physicians, Intensivists, Anesthetists, Point of care ultrasound practitioners, Medical and Sonography Students, Veterinarians, Physiotherapists, Health Policy Managers, Government Health Department Heads and Corporate companies to attend this exciting and informative conference.
