Presentation and Objectives:
The fabulous OUHSC Sonography students will be presenting their capstone presentations for us again. The OSS Officers have always loved these presentations and there is always something new we learn every year. Come ready to learn and be blown away!
Objectives at the bottom.
OSS members:
Coming in person:
Please RSVP here via Eventbright so we can order enough food.
If you have food restrictions we may or may not be able to accommodate, please let us know so we can try.
Sign in to the sign-in sheet and make sure your registration information is correct.
Joining by Zoom:
We have your information so there is no need to RSVP. We will mark your attendance when you join the meeting. Just be sure your FIRST and LAST name is used as your Zoom name when you join the meeting, otherwise, we will not know it is you and we cannot mark you as attended.
Spread the good word! Only 99 people can join this meeting via ZOOM so keep that in mind.
You will not be marked as attended if you are not present in the first 15 minutes of the ZOOM presentation.
Non-OSS member: Join us! It’s easy. You are welcome to attend our meetings, but unless you pay the annual dues you will not receive a CME and you cannot eat the meals we provide. Of course, you can bring your own and participate, but we really encourage you to become a member and contribute to Oklahoma sonographers’ continuing education growth and your own.

resonance imaging, and ultrasound elastography
Objectives:
1) Discuss the importance of diagnosing a solid breast lesion as benign or malignant
2) Compare the accuracy of different imaging modalities in differentiating solid breast
lesions
3) Identify how ultrasound elastography can be a safe, cost-effective alternative to
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or mammography
Title : Evaluating the Practicality and Diagnostic Accuracy of Post-Mortem Imaging as an
Alternative Approach to Traditional Autopsy
Objectives:
1. Identify some reasons that may contribute to the decline of traditional autopsies.
2. Compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of the three post-mortem
imaging modalities.
3. Discuss some actions that need to be considered for a more promising future in post-
mortem imaging.
Title: The Role of Endoscopic Ultrasonography in the Detection and Treatment of Pancreatic
Cancer
Explain what endoscopic ultrasonography is
Show the accuracy for detection of pancreatic cancer using endoscopic ultrasound
Explain what the endoscopic ultrasound treatments are and how they compare to
traditional chemotherapy options
Title: Efficacy of Continuous Electronic Fetal Monitoring Compared to Intermittent Auscultation
During Labor in Low-Risk Pregnancies
Objectives:
• Define Continuous Electronic Fetal Monitoring (EFM) and Intermittent Auscultation (IA)
• Determine the roles of EFM and IA in low-risk labors
