AI Decoded: From Classroom to Scan Room

Event Description:

This interactive session begins with a 30-minute didactic presentation introducing sonographers to core AI concepts and terminology in medical imaging. Participants will explore real-world examples of how AI enhances efficiency, accuracy, and consistency in diagnostic ultrasound across various clinical applications. Following the lecture, attendees will rotate through hands-on scanning stations to experience AI technologies in action—offering a practical opportunity to interact with tools that support image acquisition, automate measurements, and assist in clinical decision-making. This session is designed for sonographers seeking both conceptual knowledge and experiential learning as AI becomes increasingly integrated into daily practice.

Learning Objectives:

Define essential Artificial Intelligence (AI) terminology, including machine learning, deep learning, and neural networks, in the context of diagnostic ultrasound
Identify current clinical applications of AI across multiple ultrasound specialties.
Apply AI-powered ultrasound tools in a hands-on setting to understand their practical use and clinical impact.

Target Audience

Sonographers who want to understand how AI will impact their daily work
Healthcare professionals evaluating the value of implementing new AI technologies
Sonography students preparing for emerging technologies
Sonographers unfamiliar with AI technologies and learn best through hands-on experience
