Podcast Highlight: Why Participating in a Cadaver Lab is so Beneficial

In this clip from Episode 48 of The Sonography Lounge, Lori Green discusses one of the most valuable components of our advanced musculoskeletal ultrasound education—the opportunity to train in a human cadaver laboratory.

Ultrasound-guided procedures require more than just understanding anatomy on a screen. Cadaver-based training allows participants to correlate ultrasound anatomy with real human tissue while gaining hands-on experience performing procedures in a realistic environment.

Happy Monday! It's time for another GCUS Case of the Week.

This week's featured case comes from our Cardiac Case Study Series: Cardiomyopathies training video presented by Daniel Bourque, MS, ACS, RCS, FASE.

Test your echocardiography knowledge by reviewing this week's case before the diagnosis is revealed. Case-based learning is one of the best ways to strengthen image interpretation skills, reinforce cardiac pathology recognition, and improve clinical decision-making.

Want more challenging echo cases?

Our Cardiac Case Study Series: Cardiomyopathies features real-world case studies that help connect ultrasound findings with clinical diagnosis, making it an excellent resource for sonographers, physicians, and cardiac ultrasound professionals looking to build confidence in recognizing cardiomyopathies.
