PROJECT: LONDON SCHOOL OF ULTRASOUND

logo-lsus

London School of Ultrasound (LSUS) is proud to present a new project: FETAL DYSMORPHOLOGY. The project includes monthly virtual courses, seminars, masterclasses and conferences, which are broadcasted globally. The main objective of the project is to raise awareness about feasibility of early detection of fetal anomalies.

Research shows that Congenital Heart Defects (CHD) now stand as:

  • The most common malformations (about 1% of newborns affected)
  • Severe defects (majority need complicated heart surgery)
  • Variable (~ 200 different types CHD)
  • Have devastating impact on families
  • Associated with other anomalies (in ~40%)
  • Generally poorly detectable (just ~ 50% in UK)
  • Majority can be detected at 11-13 weeks (up to 85%)
  • Prenatal diagnosis improves the CHD outcome
  • Training of ultrasound professionals improves CHD detection

Whereas Fetal cardiology is the main focus of London School of Ultrasound (LSUS) training, other state-of-the-art courses are covering all major and important topics in perinatal ultrasound and Fetal medicine.
