We’re almost at vacation time…

which makes this the penultimate weekly wrap for 2023. Even though the end of year happens at the same time each year (funny that) it really has crept up on us all fast! Almost like we weren’t expecting it…

In this week’s free ultrasound news take a look at:

• Chris Yap’s (@casulatysrus) article on POCUS and PACS – that old bugbear about image storage and governance (7 December)
• Research into the ‘Diagnostic accuracy of Point Of Care UltraSound (POCUS) in clinical practice: A retrospective, emergency department based study’ in the latest Journal of Clinical Ultrasound (7 December).

That’s all for now – see you next week …

Mike and Suean

P.S. – the ZeduHQ will be closed from Thursday 21 December, reopening Monday 8 January.
