Ultrasound Training for DMS Programs

Aligned to AIUM Parameters & CAAHEP Standards

Adopted by 180+ Diagnostic Medical Sonography (DMS) programs, SonoSim transforms ordinary laptops into dynamic ultrasound training platforms. By complementing bedside clinical practice and live or remote ultrasound instruction provided by DMS programs, we help you help your learners develop ultrasound competency. Our DMS training content adheres to accreditation requirements published by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP), and consensus-based guidelines generated by the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM).

The SonoSim Ecosystem of ultrasound training includes 80+ peer-reviewed ultrasound training topics that are tailored to develop ultrasound knowledge. Ultrasound image acquisition, interpretation, access to thousands of real pathologic cases, and adherence to DMS imaging protocols are taught using the patented laptop-based SonoSimulator®.  Study tools, like SPI Test Prep, ensure your students are optimally prepared for Board certification exams, while SonoSim’s QuestionBank allows them to engage in interactive case-based ultrasound learning. In addition, our performance tracking dashboard, automated ultrasound image review and feedback application, and curriculum integration tools simplify the process of integrating SonoSim into your curriculum.
