DMSI 120 - Abdominal Sonography III and Clinical Orientation Lab III PREREQUISITES: DMSI 109 PROGRAM: Diagnostic Medical Sonography CREDIT HOURS MIN: 2 LECTURE HOURS MIN: 1 LAB HOURS MIN: 1 TOTAL CONTACT HOURS MIN: 2 DATE OF LAST REVISION: Fall 2022
This course is a continuation of abdominal organs covered in Abdominal Sonography I (DMSI 108) and II (DMSI 109). The peritoneal and retroperitoneal structures, small part systems such as thyroid, breast, scrotum, and retroperitoneal spaces and structures will be covered in this course. Pathology and the pathophysiological effects of different types of pathology as well as the sonographic appearance of organs affected will be discussed.
MAJOR COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVES: 1. Identify on diagram and sonographic image the normal and abnormal abdominal anatomy and variants for the organ systems discussed.
2. List basic protocol for abdominal scanning in the Ivy Tech Lab.
3. Identify on diagram and sonographic image the anatomy and variants for normal and abnormal superficial, small parts, and all other organs and tissues covered.
4. Identify on diagram and sonographic image the anatomy and variants for normal and abnormal retroperitoneal structures.
5. Describe the effects of pathophysiology on organs and organ systems.
