MSc Medical Ultrasound

The MSc in Medical Ultrasound provides clinicians and medical scientists with intensive training in both the theoretical basis of medical ultrasound and the required scanning and diagnostic skills. The course is both academic and vocational in nature, and is the only MSc of this type to offer a clinical attachment as part of the course. As an academic degree, it does not provide automatic qualification to practise as a sonographer, and national examinations may be required to achieve this. Nevertheless, the programme follows the core British Society of Echocardiography syllabus and prepares any future candidate for the successful completion of the national examinations.
