Mastering Doppler and ultrasound imaging in obstetrics

Join us on Sunday 17 January 2027 for our advanced livestreamed education course on 'Mastering Doppler and ultrasound imaging in obstetrics' led by Prof. Ahmet Baschat and Prof. Asma Khalil and our panel of dedicated international experts.

This intensive course offers a comprehensive and up-to-date exploration of the role of Doppler ultrasound in the assessment, diagnosis, and management of fetal and maternal conditions, delivered by an international faculty of leading experts. Participants will enhance their understanding of maternal and fetal Doppler techniques, waveform interpretation, fetal haemodynamics, and the application of Doppler assessment in complex obstetric conditions.

The programme covers key topics including optimising maternal and fetal Doppler techniques, the physiology and interpretation of Doppler waveforms, early and late fetal growth restriction, maternal-fetal disease, fetal anaemia, cardiac anomalies, fetal tumours, and the assessment of Doppler findings in twin pregnancies, including TTTS and TAPS. It also explores the application of Doppler in a range of complex conditions, including fetal arrhythmia, fetal hydrops, chorioangioma, fetal porto-systemic shunts, and morbidly adherent placenta. Through expert-led case discussions, interactive live Q&A and panel sessions, delegates will gain practical insights and confidence in applying Doppler techniques to support accurate diagnosis, risk assessment, and clinical decision-making.

Integrating fundamental Doppler principles with complex real-world clinical scenarios, this course provides evidence-based guidance and practical approaches relevant to everyday fetal medicine and maternal-fetal care. Delegates will benefit from an opportunity to learn from leading international experts, explore challenging cases, and understand how Doppler findings can inform the assessment and management of high-risk pregnancies.

This course is ideal for obstetricians, maternal-fetal medicine specialists, fetal medicine specialists, gynaecologists, sonographers, radiologists, midwives, and other healthcare professionals involved in obstetric ultrasound, fetal assessment, and the management of high-risk pregnancies.

Why attend?

Participants will gain evidence-based insights into the use of Doppler ultrasound for the assessment, diagnosis, and management of complex maternal and fetal conditions, including Doppler techniques, waveform interpretation, fetal growth restriction, and assessment of maternal-fetal disease and twin pregnancies. The course integrates core Doppler principles with real-world clinical challenges, featuring expert-led case discussions, practical applications, and interactive panel discussions. Participants will explore current approaches to Doppler assessment across a range of high-risk conditions, gaining a deeper understanding of how Doppler findings can support diagnosis, risk assessment, clinical decision-making, and improved outcomes in fetal and maternal care.

Learning Objectives:

Review and optimise Doppler techniques, including the acquisition of high-quality Doppler waveforms and the physiological principles underlying normal and abnormal waveform patterns.
Understand the disease-specific applications of Doppler ultrasound, exploring its role in the assessment, diagnosis, risk stratification, and management of maternal and fetal conditions.
Evaluate the practical application of Doppler in real-world clinical scenarios, using case-based examples to interpret findings and support clinical decision-making.

*Fees for non-members include ISUOG basic membership for one year. Membership will be activated after the course.

Basic membership provides accessible, high-quality support for healthcare professionals looking to develop their knowledge and skills in obstetrics and gynaecology ultrasound. It offers a strong foundation for continuous professional development through access to a wide range of educational resources, including a large library of World Congress presentations, selected online courses, and the ISUOG Academy, where members can earn CME credits flexibly from anywhere in the world. Members also benefit from practical tools such as VISUOG, a visual learning resource, and a fetal biometry calculator to support clinical practice. In addition, basic membership creates opportunities to contribute to the global ultrasound community through teaching initiatives and outreach projects, while offering reduced rates for advanced courses and events, along with regular updates via e-newsletters to keep members informed and engaged.

Trainees/residents and sonographers/radiographers

Proof of status: All trainees, residents, sonographers and radiographers will need to submit proof of their trainee, resident, sonographer or radiographer status by way of a letter from their Department or Institution. The letter must be in English and dated within the last 3 months. The document can be uploaded at the time of registering or sent by email to [email protected].

Sonographer definition: A sonographer is a non-physician medical imaging professional who performs diagnostic medical sonography, or diagnostic ultrasound.

Trainee/resident definition: A trainee is a medical professional who is not yet fully qualified or practicing without supervision within their chosen specialty and in accordance with the relevant national regulatory authorities; a resident is in residency training which leads to specially or subspecialty) certification.
