120 DMS 223L Abdominal Ultrasound III Lab (1CR) Fall Pre: DMS 223 This course is a hands-on sonographic scanning lab and the continuation in the study of the anatomy, physiology, pathology and pathophysiology of human anatomy, specifically superficial tissue as visualized by sonography. DMS 224 Abdominal Ultrasound IV (2CR) Spring; Pre/Co: None This course is a continuation study of anatomy, physiology, pathology, and pathophysiology of superficial tissue to include abdominal wall and cavities, gastrointestinal tract, neonatal brain, spine, hip, and musculoskeletal sonography. DMS 231 OB/GYN I (2CR) Spring; Pre/Co: DMS 231L This course is the study of the anatomy, physiology, pathology and pathophysiology of the organs and structures of the female pelvic cavity as visualized by sonography, including the application of Doppler principles. The study of the anatomy, physiology, and sonographic appearance of the first trimester pregnancy and fetal development is included. The course is integrated with DMS 231L, a hands-on sonographic scanning lab that focuses on the knowledge, skills, and techniques for acquisition of appropriate sonographic protocols and image optimization of the female pelvic organs, including first trimester pregnancy and fetal development. Color and spectral Doppler applications will also be applied to the appropriate anatomy. DMS 231L OB/GYN I Lab (1CR) Spring. Pre/Co: DMS 231 This course is a hands-on sonographic scanning lab that focuses on the knowledge, skills, and techniques for acquisition of appropriate sonographic protocols and image optimization of the female pelvic organs, including first trimester pregnancy and fetal development. Color and spectral Doppler applications will also be applied to the appropriate anatomy. This course is integrated with DMS-231. DMS 232 OB/GYN II (3CR) Spring; Pre: None Co: DMS 232L, DMS 222, DMS 222L, DMS 211, DMS 282 This course is the study of the anatomy, physiology, pathology and pathophysiology of the organs and structures of the fetus as visualized by sonography, including the evaluation of abnormalities, fetal growth assessment, high risk obstetrics and postpartum complications. The course is integrated with DMS-232L, a hands-on sonographic 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 232L OB/GYN Ultrasound II Lab (1CR) Spring Pre: None Co: DMS 232, DMS 211, DMS 222, DMS 222L, DMS 282 This course is the hands-on sonographic 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-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, DMS 232L Co: DMS 233L 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 postpartum 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 fetal growth and development. Color and spectral Doppler applications will also be applied to the appropriate anatomy.
