Topic outline

  • Students are required to have a training placement for breast sonography and maintain a logbook. 

    Students cannot complete the course until they have successfully complete the logbook.

    Students have to perform supervised scans and document the following in their logbook: 

    •              10 x full breast scans (both sides)

    •              50 x targeted scans

    •              5 x prosthesis scans

    •              10 x interventional studies

    These practical assessments should be completed within six months of completion of the theoretical portion of the course Breast sonography.

     

    A proforma and template for the logbook will be provided after students enrol in the Breast sonography course.

    However, if a student commences scanning prior to enrolment in breast sonography, please contact sandy.maranna@unisa.edu.au to obtain this proforma earlier.
