106 Course Descriptions course is integrated with DMS-232, the sonographic techniques for the evaluation of abnormalities, fetal growth assessment, high risk obstetrics, and post-partum complications. Color and spectral Doppler applications will also be applied to the appropriate anatomy. DMS 233 OB/GYN III (2CR) Fall; Pre: DMS-232 and DMS-232L, Co: DMS-223, DMS-223L, DMS-241, DMS-241L, DMS-284 This course is the continued study of the anatomy, physiology, pathology, and pathophysiology of the organs and structures of the fetus through the second and third trimester, as visualized by sonography. The didactic study topics will include the evaluation of abnormalities, fetal growth assessment, high risk obstetrics, and post- partum complications. This course is integrated with DMS 233L, a hands-on sonography scanning lab that focuses on the knowledge, skills, and techniques for acquisition of appropriate sonographic protocols and image optimization of the fetal growth and development. Color and spectral Doppler applications will also be applied to the appropriate anatomy. DMS 233L OB/GYN III Lab (1CR) Fall; Pre: DMS-232 and DMS-232L, Co: DMS-223, DMS-223L, DMS-241, DMS-241L, DMS-284 This course is the hands-on sonography scanning lab that focuses on the knowledge, skills, and techniques for acquisition of appropriate sonographic protocols and image optimization of the organs and structures of the fetus as visualized by sonography. This course is integrated with DMS 233, the sonographic techniques for the evaluation of abnormalities, fetal growth assessment, high risk obstetrics, and post-partum complications. Color and spectral Doppler applications will also be applied to the appropriate anatomy. DMS 241 Vascular I (1CR) Fall This course is the study of the anatomy, normal findings, and technical principles of ultrasound utilization of the hemodynamic considerations for assessment of cerebrovascular, peripheral, and abdominal visceral imaging. DMS 241L Abdominal Ultrasound III Lab (1CR) Fall This course is a hands-on sonographic scanning lab of the anatomy, normal findings, and technical principles of ultrasound utilization of the hemodynamic considerations for assessment of cerebrovascular, peripheral, and abdominal visceral imaging. DMS 242 Vascular II (2CR) Spring This course is designed to focus on the knowledge, skills, and techniques for acquisition of appropriate images of peripheral vascular structures in the human body. Students will be introduced to the anatomy, normal findings, and technical principles of the ultrasound utilization in the hemodynamic considerations for assessment or peripheral vascular imaging. It is integrated with DMS 242 Vascular II Lab. DMS 242L Vascular II Lab (1CR) Spring This course is designed to focus on the knowledge, skills, and techniques for acquisition of appropriate images of peripheral vascular structures in the human body. Students will be introduced to the anatomy, normal findings, and technical principles of the ultrasound utilization in the hemodynamic considerations for assessment or peripheral vascular imaging. It is integrated with DMS 242 Vascular II. DMS 250 Comprehensive Review (3CR) Spring This course is designed to serve as a comprehensive review on the didactic course work of the sonography program. It is completed during the fourth semester in preparation to write the general sonography certification examination. Emphasis is on knowledge,
