-
- Dr Prathima Radhakrishnan, Director, BFMC explained in detail the minimum foundation of a competent anomaly scan.. What should not be missed during scanning. She has started a successful online ultrasound training programme.
-
- Probably the maximum doubts and questions were on the heart and understanding the scanning planes of the heart. We have therefore decided that perhaps a Half day Hands-on basic cardiac ultrasound orientation workshop is in order. Anyone interested ?

- Dr Shantala Vadeyar, Chief, Maternal-Feto Medicine, Kokilaben Hospital, Mumbai is an expert on growth restricted fetuses and here she is explaining the principles of Doppler. Understanding and interpreting Doppler waveforms is fundamental to managing IUGR fetuses.

- Dr Ritika Bhandari, Consultant, Fetal Medicine, Handa Imaging Centre, New Delhi conducted a lively panel discussion with practical interesting cases. We would like to see more of her at the meetings.

- Dr Suman Vohra, Lead Sonographer and Chief Nuchal Audit Team, Royal Free Hospital, London explaining the quality control all of us need to undertake both at a personal level and at an institutional level to ensure that the Nuchal Scan screening programme is consistently performing efficiently with a low false positive rate. Probably the most important talk of the day.
We have realised over time that teaching and learning is better done in small groups of interested people. This was well illustrated with our 28th AICC RCOG Pre-Conference workshop where both audience and faculty could reach out to each other and clear doubts about common problems faced during scanning and counselling.
