Med Ultrason. 2013 Sep;15(3):215-23. doi: 10.11152/mu.2013.2066.153.cfd1lr2.

Abstract

The aim of the paper is to introduce readers to EFSUMB's wide ranging activities which have embraced modern technology. The most recent is the Atlas www.efsumb-atlas.org primarily introduced to accompany the Elastography, CEUS Liver and Non Liver Guidelines but intended to expand to all areas to offer a database of images which can be freely downloaded. Hosting eBooks on our website is another new departure, most importantly the EFSUMB Course Book on Ultrasound which is also in a printed form but allowing chapters to be updated online, an online Student Edition of the ECB to be launched at EUROSON 2013. EFSUMB has been active with updating Guidelines; those mentioned above have all been revised or written in the last two years. The EFSUMB Newsletter in the EJU promotes our activities and topical articles intended to reach all our members with the mailing of Issue 1. The Case of the Month continues to be one of EFSUMB's most visited sites and in the last few years has been translated into seven different languages including Chinese. IN CONCLUSION this article aims to provide a guide to the website educational sites of the European Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology (EFSUMB).
