Fetal ultrasounds to be offered
The Department of Imaging Sciences’ Diagnostic Medical Sonography Program at Morehead State University will offer free, two-dimensional fetal ultrasounds to expectant mothers.
The ultrasound examinations will be given from Jan. 13 until Feb. 25, 2010, and be performed by appointment only on the fourth floor of Reed Hall in the University’s sonography lab.
The scans are performed by senior level students who will be directly supervised by associate professor Marcia Cooper. She is certified in obstetrics and gynecology by the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers. The fetal ultrasound scans provide students the experience they need for entering into the sonography workforce.
All volunteers will be asked to sign a consent form stating that the scans are “non-diagnostic” and are performed for educational purposes only. Participants are asked to bring a towel and a VHS tape or DVD to record the images, if desired.
Additional information and appointment times are available by calling MSU’s Department of Imaging Sciences at (606) 783-2646.
