Fundamentals of Ultrasound Imaging
A clear, confidence-building starter for new and cross-training sonographers.
Build a rock-solid foundation in how ultrasound works and how to turn knobs into diagnostic images. In plain language and practical demos, you’ll master core physics, probe selection, image optimization, Doppler essentials, safety, and workflow—so you can scan whatever comes your way, with purpose. Perfect for students, new grads, nurses, EMS and clinicians cross-training into ultrasound, this course focuses on real-world tips, repeatable techniques, and checklists you can use on day one.
You’ll learn to:
Explain key physics (frequency, wavelength, attenuation) and how they affect image quality
Choose the right presets for common exams
Optimize images - adjusting depth, gain and other parameters
Recognize and fix common artifacts (shadowing, enhancement, reverberation, aliasing)
Apply Color & Spectral Doppler basics
Ideal for: Students, new sonographers and clinicians cross-training into ultrasound. Ultrasound Education Simplified!

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Echocardiography knowledge base is excellent!
The advanced cardiac sonographer test and learn quiz is a wonderful tool to help prepare your mindset to think at the next level. Many of the tools we may have forgotten as sonographers are resurrected by going through these modules which you will need when taking the ACS registry test. I highly recommend the All About Ultrasound/iHeartecho ACS module and website for everyone looking to push the horizon of your knowledge to the next mountain. ”
Carlton Hartwell, ACS, RDCS, FASE
