Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will focus on the impact of point-of-care ultrasound on the quality and safety in providing accurate patient care in a timely manner. The scope will encompass all specialties leveraging POCUS in their daily practice, including both outpatient and inpatient delivery models. Articles that demonstrate the ways in which POCUS impacts patient quality and safety, and helps guide resuscitation and procedures will be given priority. Additionally, articles which outline how ultrasound is taught and the methods of skill assessment at the undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate levels will also be a focus of this Special Issue. Finally, this issue will explore how artificial intelligence is changing the landscape of ultrasound image acquisition and interpretation.

Dr. John Christian Fox
