Zedu Weekly Wrap – 14 November 2025

Melbourne has been buzzing…

with Oasis and Metallica having been, AC/DC rocking the MCG this week, all followed by Kendrick Lamar and Lady Gaga. The city has been living up to it’s reputation of the cultural hub of the country…and many of our learners have been making the most of the opportunity too!

It’s also been a cracking week in ultrasound, with new articles dropping across obstetrics, cardiac, and even MSK and AI – the cutting edge is buzzing! Speaking of cutting edge… we’ve just rolled out our shiny new 2026 course calendar with heaps of fresh dates!

If you’ve been on the fence about levelling up your skills, now is the time to secure your spot. Make 2026 the year you truly scan like a pro. Remember, if our scheduled courses don’t quite fit, we can design a bespoke program just for you, but don’t tell everyone – availability is limited!..

Two great articles caught our eye this week… 🚀✨

  • Ophthalmic and uterine artery dopplers in the second trimester for prediction of preeclampsia (The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine 13 November)
  • The effect of Peyton’s four-step method for teaching point-of-care ultrasound psychomotor skills: an experimental study (The Ultrasound Journal 11 November)

See you all same place, same time…

See you next week.
