Q: Tell us a little bit about your work and how POCUS relates.

I am a clinical imaging cardiologist, with a multimodality imaging practice encountering diverse pathology and clinical cases of cardiomyopathies such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, cardiac amyloidosis, and valve heart diseases. I find the use of POCUS very helpful when we see our sick patients in the emergency room where clinical information can be augmented with the use of handheld devices. Also, there is a large need within outreach clinics with no imaging access to help with the clinical decision process. We also find the use of POCUS very practical in emergency ICU/CCU settings.

Q: Why did you pursue POCUS certification and how did you find the process to be?

POCUS certification is a practical way to refresh your skills in busy clinical practice. The content was well crafted and provided a new and innovative way to show competency and up-to-date POCUS skills.
