All point of care ultrasound (POCUS) users are encouraged to attend Pinnacle’s monthly POCUS virtual peer group session led by Dr Michael Miller.
POCUS involves the use of a handheld ultrasound device as a diagnostic tool in primary care, an approach increasingly used worldwide by doctors in rural general practice and emergency care.
