SonoWorld Europe Launched

A European version of the popular educational website for ultrasound users has been launched (www.sonoworldeurope.com). It is intended to give a European perspective to the original site, SonoWorld, and is directed by Prof. David Cosgrove of Imperial College, London.

An Advisory Board is being formed to EFSUMB. Their advice and guidance will direct the enterprise.

Membership is free to registrants, who are expected to be ultrasound users across the spectrum, and the Euro-specific content will cover teaching cases (which will be accepted after peer review) and news items of a specifically European nature. This will include legislative matters (e.g. on microbubble contrast agents), practice directives and recomendations and notices of European meetings.

SonoWorld Europe is supported by ISUOG and EFSUMB (with its official journal Ultraschall in der Medizin) and by European ultrasound manufacturing companies.
