“使用颈动脉超声识别亚临床血管疾病和评估心血管疾病风险：美国超声学会颈动脉内膜-中层厚度工作组的共识声明”的继续医学教育课程认证声明：美国超声学会被美国继续医学教育认证委员会认可，为医生提供继续医学教育。美国超声心动图学会指定这项教育活动最多有1个AMA PRA类别1学分(TM)。医生只能申请与他们参与活动的程度相称的学分。ARDMS和CCI承认ASE的证书，并同意遵守他们对超声医师的注册要求的学分时间。美国超声心动图学会致力于解决所有利益冲突问题，其任务是只保留那些经济利益与教育项目的目标和教育完整性相一致的演讲者。目标受众：1.对心脏和血管成像、预防心脏病学和心血管疾病风险评估感兴趣的医生、医生助理和护士。2.对血管成像和心血管疾病风险评估感兴趣的超声师。目标：完成本活动后，参与者将能够：1.描述使用颈动脉超声识别亚临床血管疾病和评估心血管疾病风险的基本原理。2.解释颈动脉超声在心血管疾病风险评估中的应用。3.描述颈动脉超声识别亚临床血管疾病的扫描技术。4.解释用于心血管疾病风险评估的颈动脉超声研究的关键组成部分。
Continuing Medical Education Course for "Use of Carotid Ultrasound to Identify Subdinical Vascular Disease and Evaluate Cardiovascular Disease Risk: A Consensus Statement for the American Society of Echocardiography Carotid Intima-Media Thickness Task Force"Accreditation Statement:The American Society of Echocardiography is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians.The American Society of Echocardiography designates this educational activity for a maximum of 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits (TM). Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.ARDMS and CCI recognize ASE's certificates and have agreed to honor the credit hours toward their registry requirements for sonographers. The American Society of Echocardiography is committed to resolving all conflict of interest issues, and its mandate is to retain only those speakers with financial interests that can be reconciled with the goals and educational integrity of the educational program. Disclosure of faculty and commercial support sponsor relationships, if any, have been indicated.Target Audience:1. Physicians, physicians' assistants, and nurses with an interest in cardiac and vascular imaging, preventive cardiology, and cardiovascular disease risk assessment. 2. Ultrasonographers with interest in vascular imaging and cardiovascular disease risk assessment.Objectives:Upon completing this activity, participants will be able to: 1. Describe the rationale for using carotid ultrasound to identify subdinical vascular disease and to evaluate cardiovascular disease risk. 2. Explain the application of carotid ultrasound to cardiovascular disease risk assessment. 3. Describe the scanning technique for identifying subdinical vascular disease using carotid ultrasound. 4. Explain the key components of interpreting carotid ultrasound studies for cardiovascular disease risk assessment.
