Nerve Conduction &
Neuro Ultrasound
Technician Certification Course

Course Overview

Course Description

• This certification program is equivalent to the highest standards of education, practice and examinations proposed by Medicare. The certification provided by this Course is proven to be a major milestone in the preparation of an individual who will perform nerve conduction and neuro ultrasound studies under the direct supervision of a licensed, health care professional whose scope of practice includes the performance and interpretation of nerve conduction and neuro ultrasound studies.
• This Certification Course has a nearly 20-year history (Since 2003) of demonstrated excellence in education at the basic science level, as well as, the practical level that is recommended by many professional organizations and by Medicare.
• Formal Course of study includes the ethical and evidenced-based approach to the performance of Nerve Conduction and Neuro Ultrasound studies (motor, sensory, late responses and H-wave) at an optimal level of competency.
• Topics included in the Course include: Anatomy, physiology, biomedical instrumentation, neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, ethics, and other related basic science items at a technical level.
• Significant time is spent on learning nerve conduction and neuro ultrasound (motor, sensory and late responses) techniques on most peripheral nerves in both the upper and lower extremity as well as trouble-shooting exercises.
• All material is centered on evidence-based principles.
• Laboratory practice is an important aspect of this Course as a majority of the Course time is devoted to guided laboratory studies and case study analysis.
• Appropriate discussion on ethical practice is stressed.
