MDR 800: Ultrasound in Gynecology and Obstetrics

This rotation is an intensive experience with the faculty of the Division of Ultrasound in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. It is geared for students interested in the fields of Obstetrics and Gynecology. The emphasis of the rotation is on the use of ultrasound as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool in women’s health. The student will observe and participate in diagnostic ultrasound for gynecologic problems, routine and complicated obstetrics, and ultrasound guided procedures for gynecologic and obstetrical indications. This will be complemented by time in the operating room for general gynecologic surgery and on labor and delivery. Students are expected to display an elevated level of intellectual curiosity and perform as a self-motivated learner. For students interested in Obstetrics and Gynecology or Radiology, there may be opportunities to become involved with research with the attending physicians.
