Obstetrics - Module 2 - Interpretation
This Module takes a fresh approach to simulation -based interactive learning.
Intended for UltraSim users with previous clinical obstetrics ultrasound experience,
it was designed to help hone critical thinking in case interpretation and provide
significant exposure to common sonographic imaging pitfalls and how to avoid them.
Sample Case List:
- 27 Week, Spina Bidifa.
- 24 Week,Hydronephrosis.
- 12 Week, Normal Triplet Pregnancy.
- 12 Week Abnormal Triplet Pregnancy.
- 20 Week, Hydrops.

Vascular - Module 1 - Carotid
The first in a series of modules to demonstrate general principles of color Doppler
ultrasound. The UltraSim®
operates in full triplex mode with all the functions of today's ultrasound system. Cases
are taken from the arteries of the neck: carotids and vertebral.
Sample Case List:
- Normal left bifurcation, ICA, ECA and vertebral artery.
- Normal right CCA and and vertebral segments V1, V2, with no evidence of intimal
thickening or plaque formation.
- Left ICA with several areas of plaque deposits. Color Doppler and spectral analysis
demonstrate turbulent flow but normal velocities.
- Right ICA stenosis due to a large, heterogeneous plaque. Color Doppler demonstrates flow
within the the plaque. Spectral broadening and elevation of the peak systolic velocity is
identified.
- Total occlusion of the right ICA with flow reversal at the origin and dampened diastolic
flow in the distal ICA and vertebral artery.

Neck -Module 1 - Thyroid
This is MedSim's premiere module using the Milti-Volume loading functionality which enables expanded
presentation of the anatomy. Included in this module are 16 challenging cases focusing on the user's
ability to practice various scanning techniques,demonstrate normal and abnormal thyroid tissue, evaluate
relational anatomy and understand pattern recognition commonly encountered in thyroid desease.
This module is suitable for both introductory and experienced users.
Sample Case List:
- An inferior pole hyperechoic solid nodule with
calcifications and a thick peripheral halo.
- A large solid nodule entirely filling in the right lobe,
with extension into the isthmus,causing compression of
the remaining thyroid parenchyma.
- An enlarged thyroid gland containing multiple nodules
with varied size and echogenicity in both lobes and isthmus.
- Small-sized thyroid gland with a normal sonographic pattern.
- Lateral aspect of the right neck reveals enlarged heterogeneous cervical
lymph nodes containing solid components and microcalcifications.
