Quantitative Ultrasound: How to develop and measure these parameters

Monday, April 8, 2024
11:00am – 12:30pm  
Location:602
CE: 1.5

Quantitative ultrasound is an old field in basic science, but is gaining more traction as new techniques and new clinical applications emerge. This session will explore current quantitative ultrasound techniques and how to rigorously establish quantitative ultrasound parameters.

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe the physical principles recently introduced to the field of quantitative ultrasound biomarkers.
  • Explain the potential and challenges associated with clinical implementation of quantitative ultrasound.
  • Describe the regulatory framework for biomarker deployment.

Presentations:

  • 11:00am – 11:20am  
    Physical Basis of Quantitative Ultrasound Biomarkers

    Ivan Rosado-Mendez, PhD (he/him/his) – University of Wisconsin, Madison

  • 11:20am – 11:40am  
    Quantitative Ultrasound Biomarkers: Aspects of clinical implementation

    David T. Fetzer, MD (he/him/his) – UT Southwestern Medical Center

  • 11:40am – 12:00pm
