It was a momentous occassion this week…

as our CEO (Canine Entertainment Officer) Barney turned the ripe old age of 5 🙂 Barney is a firm favourite among everyone that visits ZeduHQ, so there were treats and pats galore. We think all CEOs (in fact any leadership position) should be filled by the four footed and furry variety – it would certainly remove a great deal of politics!

As for ultrasound news of note this week, check out:

• the team at MetroHealth Emergency Ultrasound (@MH_EMultrasound) get a distinguished mention for their work this week with resources on 2nd & 3rd trimester emergencies (13 June), as well as how to improve your presentation game (14 June)
• Jonny Wilkinson’s (@Wilkinsonjonny) VLOG No.2 is out – a fun wrap up of the best in critical care resources (with a twist of dry Northampton humour) (8 June)

Chat to you next week
