The Emergency Ultrasound Handbook is a valuable tool for anyone learning point of care ultrasound or wanting a quick review of an exam they haven’t performed in a while. Developed by the team at 3rd Rock Ultrasound, this app is perfect for physicians, advanced practice providers (APPs), and medical students looking to improve their ultrasound skills.

This app combines illustrations, still images, and labeled instructional videos to help you understand point of care ultrasound better. The dynamic learning tools make it easier to grasp complex concepts. With the new pathology section, you’ll find a range of still images, illustrations, and labeled videos that focus on what truly matters in ultrasound practice. This section also supports experienced point of care practitioners and ultrasound educators in their teaching efforts.

The Emergency Ultrasound Handbook covers a variety of exams, including the abdominal aorta exam, cardiac ultrasound techniques, DVT assessment, the EFAST protocol, and gallbladder ultrasound. It also includes ocular imaging, pulmonary ultrasound, renal examination, and resuscitation ultrasound. You can review soft tissue evaluations, transabdominal pregnancy scans, transvaginal pregnancy ultrasounds, and vascular access procedures as well.

For each exam, you’ll find useful information including the purpose of the exam, detailed descriptions, and important pearls that highlight key points. Additionally, the app offers quick review resources for normal exam measurements, which can aid in your preparation and understanding.

Finally, there is a convenient section in the app for saving personal notes. This feature allows you to store important insights and information that you can refer back to later. Whether you are a medical student just starting out or an experienced healthcare provider looking to refresh your knowledge, the Emergency Ultrasound Handbook is designed to enhance your learning experience in clinical ultrasound applications.
