POCUS for the WIN
Publish how point of care ultrasound guided management in your case!
Interested in authoring an article for POCUS FTW, a case report series within the EM Resident magazine?

We know that ultrasound is an integral part of your practice and that you deserve the training and resources that will enable you to utilize this powerful tool throughout your career. We also know that you face any number of challenges when it comes to ultrasound, from access to the equipment and training to skeptical faculty and work flow integration. We're here to help.
We will be advocating on behalf of you, EM residents, to make sure you have access to the best possible technology and training.
