SONOSIM SUMMARY: Medlej and Lewiss examine the relative merits of pursuing Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonography (RDMS) certification, from an emergency medicine perspective. Terms frequently associated with ultrasonography including competency, credentialing, accreditation, and certification are differentiated.
The article delves into the pros and cons of RDMS certification for emergency physicians with a special interest in ultrasonography. It advocates for formal emergency medicine ultrasound fellowship training, as the authors feel this better prepares fellowship graduates by providing a clinical context to the study of ultrasonography.
