Gumral Garayeva 20 solved cases, Azerbaijan

 

  Elizabeth has been working in ultrasound for many years, initially in a community hospital setting as a clinical instructor and later serving as the lead sonographer. Following the birth of her triplets she developed a heightened interest in obstetrics and a desire to pursue training in specialized fetal studies.  An opportunity to work with Northwest Perinatal Center in Portland, Oregon allowed her to follow her dream and obtain credentialing in fetal echocardiography.  She also received certification in first trimester screening and cervical length.  She supervised a rapidly growing, multicenter ultrasound program, obtaining accreditation with the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine and organizing education opportunities for clinicians and staff.  After learning of a position for a perinatal sonographer in Kalispell, MT with Montana Perinatal Center, she decided to take a step back and return to what she loves most – scanning those babies! She has to been able to get her new department accredited with AIUM and she is enjoying the smaller office atmosphere. Congratulations!!!! Wendy Washam9 solved cases, USA     Congratulations!!!!

  Philippe wrote to us: ¨I am grateful to all colleagues across continents completing month after month the unvaluable information of the Fetus.net.In this era of globalized medicine it has become the biggest data bank in the domain of  ultrasound imaging of fetal diseases and abnormalities. I would appreciate the same energy invested in collecting information to help and counsel the prospective parents, the most difficult part of our job.¨ This is a great idea... Counseling however varies a lot with local environment and philosophies, but surely we could post the typical counseling anyone is using and that could be the basis to use for those without that information available. Philippe is also a great friend and I enjoy his personal emails very much ! Congratulations!!!! Azer Farajov25 solved cases, Azerbaijan
