Clinical Ultrasound Summer School Constanta, Romania

29 August – 1 September 2024

The 15th School (which turned hybrid in 2021) had 200 onsite participants (with 80 from outside Romania) and a total of 1 000 registered. Most of the international lectures were live online with 1.5 days in English and the remainder in Romanian. The driving forces are Prof. Dr. Ioan Tofolean and Prof. Dr. Radu Badea aided by EDUSON – an educational online platform organized by the OVIDIUS University Faculty of Medicine. During the year 2024 they have held 15 hybrid events and 18 webinars and offer over 1000 hours of ultrasound content on the website (some of which are in English).

Support from the 4 main sponsors Vino/Numberis, DTL Medical, Liamed and Berlin-Chemie is appreciated and enables hands-on sessions to be incorporated in the programme. Live patients have been recruited from Constanta using Facebook with over 200 volunteers!
