The Zedu weekly wrap - bringing together the best in free ultrasound news, views and opinions from across the internet.

Zedu Weekly Wrap – 14 August 2026

We’re midway through August…

and spring is starting to reveal itself – the mornings getting a little brighter and warmer.

And springing out of the blocks is a brand new course – Ultrasound for Gynaecological Bracytherapy – designed in partnership with the Australasian Brachytherapy Group.

We’re excited to be at the cutting edge globally, offering clinicians directly involved in the planning and delivery of pelvic brachytherapy a practical hands on course that will transform a blind insertion into a guided one. Ultrasound is truly transformative – a fact we keep learning every day.Zedu - ultrasound for gynaecological brachytherapy

  • ISUOG – Diagnostic imaging of adnexal lesions in pregnancy: systematic review (12 August)

Time to mow the lawn.

keep your probes clean and the gel warm.
