We also have a medical student elective, visiting resident elective and observerships in emergency ultrasound. Dr. Suwondo, our Director of Resident Education monitors resident numbers and educational needs. We hold ultrasound-specific lectures about 8-10 times a year, a 2-day intern orientation bootcamp, and a SonoWars competition yearly. In 2021, a specific Resident Ultrasound Committee run by residents was started.
