Zedu Weekly Wrap - 26 September 2025

Welcome to a new era…

as we have successfully relocated to Zedu’s new permanent facility. It has been a non-stop 4 days involving huge logistics – we’re so proud of the team and their effort to get everything ready for courses starting Monday. We’ve had new tech installed, and a range of new ultrasound systems from all our partners that we can’t wait to fire up. We can’t wait to welcome you all to this exciting and colourful new learning space.

Still found time between unboxing to keep abreast of other developments in the ultrasound world, here’s our recommendations of what to check out this week! 🚀✨

Optic nerve sheath diameter and Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2 for predicting outcomes in traumatic brain injury patients during prehospital care: a prospective cohort study in China from BMJ Open (26 September)
POCUS for the Diagnosis of Acute Pediatric Distal Radius Fractures from EMDocs (24 September)
Stellate Ganglion Block in the US Gel Podcast (22 September)

It’s AFL Grand Final weekend this weekend, so good luck if your team is in the game. We’ll be finishing off the new facility and prparing to launch Australia’s new home of ultrasound.

See you soon

Mike and Suean

Make 2026 your year of ultrasound and check out our range of
scheduled and one-on-one options that will get you scanning like a pro.

Plus – as the cultural capital of Australia – why not tie in a bit of training with a touch of AO tennis, speed through at the Melbourne GP or have a laugh at the International Comedy Festival.

If you know the value of protected learning time, secure your place early.

P.S. – don’t forget – if something doesn’t quite fit your learning objectives or availability we can design and deliver a program that meets your needs. Don’t tell everyone though – availability is limited.
