Podcasts about ultrasounds

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:    Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral! I'm convinced I have lipedema. I haven't been to the Dr to confirm yet. My torso, arms & legs all feel like I have grainy/pebbly texture beneath the skin. My knees have a weird “fat pad” on the side. I listened to another show where you mentioned lipedema, & I thought you said you have been able to help people reverse it. All of my research says it's incurable, but can manage it and calm swelling and pain, but the nodular fat will not go away without lipo. My questions are: are you familiar with any other scenario where texture I feel on myself as I described is normal? Or is that pebbly feeling always lipedema? Have you actually seen people get rid of the nodular lipedema fat & heal completely? Or just reduce swelling, pain & normal fat?Diet advice for this condition? Thanks                   Anonymous: Dr C! Thank you for all you do! I am a 52 yr old post menopausal female, who is pretty healthy, dove into your supplements and detox about 1 yr now. Recently I had normal labs taken by my MD with the results of my alanine aminotransferase (SGPT), serum slighty elevated from last year (range 10-34, mine was 53, last year it was 35). Negative for hepatitis, not a drinker, cholesterol is good, weigh 110 at 5'2, Ultrasound also showed a healthy liver...could it be certain supplements? Thanks in advance! PS have done the 7 day detox 3x now and will do again in May                                     Anonymous: Hey Dr Cabral....Love listening to you daily! Question ... how important is taking creatine if you are in menopause? Want to maintain healthy muscles whiles strength training but not really a fan about how I hear it may bloat you. Thanks for all you do!                                                                                                                                                                  Anonymous: I recently completed my 2nd DNAge test, included in my HPH membership. I was shocked to receive the results indicating that based on my methylation value, l aged an additional 6 years in 8 months! I basically follow Dr. Cabral's lifestyle recommendations to the letter. I eat a primarily Mediterranean diet, detox 4 times a year, sauna, resistance and cardio train, prioritize sleep, PEMF mat, minimal to no alcohol, and practice meditation and mindfulness. Additionally, I do the Big 5 four times per year. The only 2 things I have changed in the time between tests is that I have eliminated a very low dose of estrogen and progesterone that I was prescribed for post menopausal symptoms and I have added cold plunge 3 times per week. I am 63 years old. Please advise.                                                         Emily: My partner 23 (M) has recently started experiencing debilitating anxiety. This is not normal for him and he has not experienced anxiety like this before or at all. He was sick this last month with a 104 degree fever and for a few weeks was experiencing skin sensitivity in certain spots. What would you recommend in helping navigate this new anxiety and help him start feeling “normal” again.                                                                                                                                                        Kay: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thanks so much for your great podcasts- I look forward to them every week. My question is: what are your thoughts on the use of testosterone to help post-menopausal women maintain muscle mass and bone health as well as hypoactive sexual desire disorder? My physician is recommending a small amount of a compounded formulation of testosterone to be injected in the subcutaneous skin layer every 10 days. Are there any less invasive and more natural ways to achieve the same benefits that you would recommend? I have heard that testosterone is a controlled substance and I am wondering if it could potentially cause side effects such as hair loss on the head and hair growth in unwanted areas. Thank you.             Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!    - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3403 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

In today's episode host Dr. Christina Shenvi is joined by Dr. Robert Sternberg, Ultrasound Director at Akron General to discuss ultrasound-guided nerve blocks for precise pain relief in older patients. Ultrasound-guided nerve blocks provide relief from one of the most common emergency department complaints: pain. In addition to their use in acute pain management, nerve blocks can help reduce the use of opioids, reduce hospital length of stay, and improve patient outcomes and experiences. Using case examples, Dr. Sternberg talks through how to perform 4 common types of nerve blocks you may use in the emergency department with an elderly patient: Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block (FICB), Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block, Serratus Anterior Plane (SAP) Block and Erector Spinae Block (ESB). Tune in to hear indications, key anatomical landmarks, dosing, and techniques for each of the nerve blocks.

In this week's Podiatry Legends Podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with James Ferrie, a sports and musculoskeletal podiatrist from My Sports Podiatry in Docklands, Victoria, to discuss point-of-care ultrasound and its benefits for our patients.  Whether you're just starting out in practice or looking to enhance your existing clinic, this episode will give you the tools and knowledge to incorporate ultrasound into your diagnostic toolkit. Nine Key Takeaways from the Episode: Point-of-care ultrasound enhances diagnostic accuracy by providing real-time imaging of soft tissues and bones. Ultrasound helps podiatrists make clinical decisions immediately during patient appointments. It's a powerful tool for ruling out common diagnoses, such as plantar fasciitis, and identifying rare conditions like stress fractures or DVT. Ultrasound improves patient outcomes by helping podiatrists tailor treatments to individual needs. The learning curve for ultrasound can be steep, but with practice and proper training, it becomes an invaluable skill. Podiatrists can use ultrasound for more than just musculoskeletal injuries, including nerve assessment and injection guidance. The handheld ultrasound devices are a good starting point, but may not be sufficient for complex procedures or advanced diagnostics. The ability to visualise structures during patient care makes ultrasound an extension of the clinical exam. Proper training and practice are essential for interpreting ultrasound images accurately and avoiding common errors. If you want to know where and when James Ferrie's workshops are being held, I suggest contacting him on LinkedIn.  My Upcoming Events - https://www.podiatrylegends.com/upcoming-events/ If you have any questions about this episode or want to contact me, please email me at tyson@podiatrylegends.com.

In this episode of Curing with Sound, we hear from Paul Sayer, a prostate cancer survivor from the United Kingdom, whose life was transformed by focused ultrasound treatment. Diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer in 2018 and initially advised to undergo surgery, Paul took the initiative to research alternative treatments. His search led him to focused ultrasound, a noninvasive option that offered a significantly lower risk of debilitating side effects. Paul shares his remarkable journey and recounts his swift recovery. He experienced minimal side effects and returned to his normal life almost immediately. This profound experience inspired Paul to establish the charity Prost8 UK just months after his treatment, dedicated to raising awareness about focused ultrasound and expanding its availability across the UK. Discussion highlights: Patient Empowerment: Paul's story underscores the importance of patients researching their options and advocating for the treatment that best suits their needs, even when faced with initial resistance from medical professionals. Minimally Invasive, Maximum Impact: Learn about the significant advantages of focused ultrasound for prostate cancer, including drastically reduced risks of incontinence and erectile dysfunction compared to traditional surgery or radiotherapy, allowing patients to maintain their quality of life. Advocacy in Action: Discover how Paul translated his personal success story into a mission to help others, founding Prost8 UK to increase awareness and access to focused ultrasound by placing more treatment units in hospitals.

Seafood lovers know that fatty marbling is what makes tuna sashimi and sushi so tasty, so for the industry, it's the fish's level of fattiness that's used to judge its quality and pricing. Usually, several people assess how fatty a tuna is by cutting the tail with a giant saw-like knife, an operation that takes about 60 seconds per fish. But now, a machine called Sonofai uses ultrasound waves to do the job in 12 seconds, operated by a person without prior knowledge of how to carve fish. Fujitsu, the Japanese company behind the technology, invited reporters for a demonstration of Sonofai, a word blended from "sono," referring to "sound," "f" for Fujitsu, and "ai," or artificial intelligence. The name refers to its components but also stands for "son of AI." A conveyor belt transports a whole frozen tuna, about a meter (3 feet) in size, into a machine that beams ultrasound waves. Sensors pick up the waves to draw a zigzagging diagram on a screen to indicate the fish's fattiness. Fatty meat absorbs fewer sound waves than lean meat, and AI sorts real data from misleading "noise," or irregularities. Hisashi Ishida, president of Sonofai, the startup behind the technology, who also heads Ishida Tec Co., which makes food-manufacturing equipment, says it's safer, more sanitary and efficient. "Fatty fish tastes good, feels better on your tongue and is called toro," he said. "Overseas needs are growing because sushi culture is now appreciated around the world." Beef has a grading system for fat and expected flavor, but being able to gauge the quality of tuna is new, according to Hideto Okada, who oversees AI at Fujitsu. But Sonofai won't be at your neighborhood sushi chef. Fish-processing outfits and fishing organizations are the likely buyers. The machine is set to go on sale in June for about 30 million yen ($207,000) each, at first in Japan but expanding to the U.S. and other places later. They'll also work on future upgrades to test for freshness, firmness and other characteristics of tuna and other fish varieties. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

In this conversation, Dr. Shawn Tassone discusses the complexities of postmenopausal bleeding, emphasizing the importance of understanding hormone health and the potential implications of bleeding in postmenopausal women. He outlines the diagnostic procedures, including ultrasounds and endometrial biopsies, and explains the significance of various results. Dr. Tassone also addresses the management of endometrial polyps and fibroids, the common occurrence of spotting during hormone replacement therapy, and encourages women to seek medical advice when experiencing unusual symptoms. The conversation aims to educate and empower women regarding their hormonal health and the importance of early detection of potential issues. Episode Highlights: Postmenopausal bleeding should always be investigated. Ultrasounds are crucial for assessing endometrial thickness. Endometrial biopsies can be life-saving tests. Spotting can be common when starting hormone therapy. Polyps are usually benign but can cause bleeding. Understanding hormone levels is key to managing symptoms. Cancers develop over time, not suddenly. Women should not fear hormone replacement therapy. Early detection of uterine cancer is possible and important. Consulting with a physician is essential for any unusual symptoms.

In this episode of Curing with Sound, James Mahoney, PhD, associate professor and neuropsychologist at West Virginia University, discusses the use of focused ultrasound for addiction treatment. Dr. Mahoney and the team at the Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute are using neuromodulation to target the nucleus accumbens - the brain's reward center - to help patients with severe opioid use disorders who haven't responded to conventional treatments. The team recently published results from a clinical trial demonstrating that this innovative approach is not only safe but also effective at reducing substance cravings, decreasing actual substance use, and that these changes continued through a 90-day follow-up.  Discussion highlights: Adjunctive Therapy – The study uses focused ultrasound as part of an integrated treatment plan with patients also utilizing standard of care practices, including medication for opioid use disorder, and behavioral treatments, working with therapists and support groups. Comprehensive Benefits – Beyond reducing substance cravings, researchers noted increased treatment engagement among patients, and the return of more functional lifestyles, including reconnecting with family, and maintaining employment. Future Applications – Current research is expanding to other substance use disorders, including methamphetamine and cocaine, as well as behavioral addictions like binge eating disorder and gambling, with promising preliminary results.

Send us a textA groundbreaking approach to equine intestinal motility takes center stage as Drs. Barbara Delvescovo and Marta Cercone join us to discuss their pioneering research on ultrasound-guided celiac plexus blocks in horses. Their remarkable findings reveal that this technique not only restores but actually enhances intestinal motility beyond baseline levels in normal horses—without causing discomfort.Post-operative ileus remains one of the most challenging conditions in equine medicine, significantly increasing mortality rates after colic surgery. Traditional treatments often fall short, requiring a multimodal approach with limited options. This innovative nerve block technique offers a promising new tool that equine practitioners with basic ultrasound skills can implement in their practice.The conversation takes fascinating turns as we explore the researchers' diverse backgrounds, from Marta's long-standing interest in neuromodulation to Barbara's clinical practice insights. Their journey reveals how mentorship and curiosity drive scientific discovery, perfectly captured in Marta's guiding principle: "True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing." They also share encouraging news for horse owners—contrary to common belief, many horses return to full athletic performance after colic surgery with modern management techniques. The team is now extending their research to clinical cases and inflammatory conditions, potentially transforming how we approach equine gastrointestinal disorders. For veterinarians seeking innovative solutions to challenging cases, this episode offers valuable insights into the intersection of regional anesthesia, ultrasonography, and equine medicine.AJVR open access article: https://doi.org/10.2460/ajvr.24.11.0328INTERESTED IN SUBMITTING YOUR MANUSCRIPT TO JAVMA ® OR AJVR ® ?

Rock climbers often experience finger injuries due to overtraining. Finger tendons are unique in their anatomy and function compared to other tendons. Tenosynovitis is a common injury among climbers, often due to too much stress too soon. Rehabilitation for finger injuries should focus on gradual load increase and proper technique. The A2 pulley is crucial for finger movement and is often injured in climbers. Climbers need to be aware of the specific loads their fingers endure during training. Managing climbing volume is essential to prevent injuries in climbers. The tendon sheath plays a vital role in the health of finger tendons. Understanding the mechanics of finger tendons can aid in better training and injury prevention. Power loss is a key metric in understanding climbing performance. Beginners should focus on skill development rather than overloading their fingers. Body weight significantly affects the load on tendons during climbing. Lifelong loading is crucial for tendon adaptations in climbers. Climbers often underload their tendons during rehabilitation, leading to prolonged recovery. Strength training is essential for injury prevention and performance enhancement in climbing. Tendon adaptations require significant muscle load and proper joint positioning. Controversial training methods are gaining popularity, but their efficacy is debated. Ultrasound is the gold standard for diagnosing climbing injuries and assessing tendon health. There is a growing interest in climbing research, leading to better understanding and treatment of climbing-related injuries.

Cattle Industry News Trump's Tariffs Trigger Chinese Retaliation, Impacting U.S. Meat Exports President Donald Trump ordered new tariffs on Chinese goods, raising total duties to 104% starting Wednesday in response to China's retaliation against earlier U.S. measures. In return, China imposed steep tariffs on U.S. meat—56% on beef and 81% on pork—effective Thursday, according to the U.S. Meat Export Federation. This move threatens a major market, as China and Hong Kong were the third-largest U.S. pork buyers at $1.14 billion and the second-largest for beef at nearly $2 billion last year. Meanwhile, Mexico—America's top pork buyer—has not yet responded to separate U.S. tariffs outside the USMCA agreement.

In this episode of the SCCM Podcast, host Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, is joined by Heather Meissen, DNP, FCCM, to discuss the importance to nurses of publication and navigating the academic publishing process. They discuss how nurses at the bedside are uniquely positioned to identify trends and gaps in patient care that can be addressed through research and publication. This podcast aims to raise awareness for nurses and other critical care practitioners wanting to enter the research and publishing fields. This unique professional development topic is designed for healthcare workers at the beginning of their research and publishing journeys. Dr. Meissen stresses that publishing is vital for advancing nursing practice and improving patient care, urging clinicians to “just get started” on their research and writing journeys. She emphasizes the importance of finding a mentor to help refine research questions, structure projects, and navigate challenges. She provides practical advice on identifying a research topic, conducting a literature review, and selecting the appropriate journal for submission. The discussion also highlights imposter syndrome among new writers and how overcoming self-doubt is crucial to getting published. The conversation touches on the peer review process, including how to handle feedback constructively and spot predatory journals that seek publication fees without legitimate editorial oversight. Dr. Meissen also discusses the role of AI in writing and research, cautioning against its misuse while acknowledging its potential benefits. Finally, she encourages nurses to participate in the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Reviewer Academy, which aims to train a community of trusted, skilled, and diverse peer reviewers to perform high-quality reviews for the SCCM journals (Alexander P, et al. Crit Care Med. 2023;51:1111-1123). Learn more about the SCCM Reviewer Academy at sccm.org/journals. Diane C. McLaughlin, DNP, AGACNP-BC, CCRN, FCCM, is a neurocritical care nurse practitioner at University of Florida Health Jacksonville. She is active within SCCM, serving on both the APP Resource and Ultrasound committees, and is a social media ambassador for SCCM. Heather Meissen, DNP, FCCM, is a nurse practitioner and associate clinical professor at Emory Healthcare in Atlanta, Georgia.

It’s one of the greatest joys of being pregnant: getting an ultrasound, to see a picture of your unborn child’s face. But now many medical experts are sounding the alarm about the increasingly popular trend of so-called “reassurance” ultrasounds. These are scans that pregnant women frequently opt for, not only to get a chance to see their child, but also to allay anxieties over their baby’s health, or just nab a souvenir image. But in some cases, these scans have led to stillbirths, late-term abortions and incorrect diagnoses. Today, senior health reporter Henrietta Cook, on why these scans have sometimes led to heartbreaking outcomes, and the push to regulate sonographers.Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It might not be Pi Day anymore, but Elliot and Dan got together for the approximately 100*Pi-th episode of the Podcast to run through the week's coolest hacks. Ultrasound seemed to be one of the themes, with a deep dive into finding bugs with sonar as well as using sound to cut the cheese -- and cakes and pies, too. The aesthetics of PCBs were much on our minds, too, from full-color graphics on demand to glow-in-the-dark silkscreens. Is automation really needed to embed fiber optics in concrete? Absolutely! How do you put plasma in a bottle? Apparently, with kombucha, Nichrome, and silicone. If you need to manage your M:TG cards, scribble on the walls, or build a mechanical chase light, we've got the details. And what exactly is a supercomputer? We can't define it, but we know one when we see it. Check out all the links over at Hackday!

Dr. Neal Kassell, Founder and Chairman of the Focused Ultrasound Foundation,  is working to raise awareness and drive the utilization of focused ultrasound to treat a wide range of medical conditions. This non-invasive technology uses medical imaging to precisely target and treat tissue deep in the body. Focused ultrasound has multiple mechanisms of action and can be used for destroying tumors, modulating neural activity, delivering drugs, and stimulating the immune system. Neal explains, "So focused ultrasound is a new, totally non-invasive therapeutic technology, and it's the intersection of medical imaging, which is either ultrasound or MR imaging, which is used to identify the portion of the body that we want to treat to plan the treatment, and then to guide the treatment. Then, the focused ultrasound technology delivers the energy that treats the tissue. The way it works is analogous to using a magnifying glass to focus beams of light and burn a hole in a leaf." "But at that focal point where all the beams converge, we now understand 30 ways ultrasound can affect tissue. That's in contrast to, for instance, radiation therapy, which is only one mechanism of action. Or a surgical robot, which is one mechanism of action. Focused Ultrasound has at least 30 mechanisms of action, including destroying tissue at that focal point by a variety of mechanisms,  stimulating or blocking neural activity in the brain called neuromodulation, and delivering drugs or other therapeutic agents precisely to a point in the body where they are needed. This increases both the effectiveness and decreases the systemic side effects, stimulates the body's immune response to tumor, and to the effectiveness of cancer immunotherapy agents." "The point in the body where the ultrasound is targeted is, as I said, previously guided and controlled by medical imaging, either ultrasound or MR imaging. Now, the fact that there are so many different mechanisms of action creates the opportunity to treat a wide variety of medical disorders. Today, around the world, there are more than 180 clinical indications or diseases in various stages of research and development in commercialization. Ten years ago or so, there were only three. That's how rapidly the field is growing."  #FocusedUltrasoundFoundation #FUSFoundation #FocusedUltrasound #Glioblastoma #ClinicalTrials #NeuroOncology #Innovation #Healthcare #MedTech #Oncology #Neurology fusfoundation.org Download the transcript here

Dr. Joe Sirven discusses mental sharpness and a breakthrough treatment for essential tremors.

As we gain a better understanding of how misfiring brain circuits lead to mental health conditions, we'd like to be able to go in and nudge those circuits back into balance. But this is hard — literally — because the brain is encased in this thick bony skull. Plus, often the problem you want to target is buried deep in the middle of a maze of delicate brain tissue you need to preserve.Today we're going to be talking with neuroscientists who aim to solve this problem with sound. And not just any sound: ultrasound.Kim Butts Pauly and Raag Airan from the Stanford Department of Radiology are developing ultrasound technology in a couple of different ways to essentially reach into the brain to treat brain disorders that are otherwise hard to access. These uses of ultrasound haven't yet reached the clinic, but could be entering clinical testing in people in the next few years. Mentioned on the ShowMeet the 2025 Neurosciences Postdoctoral Scholars (Wu Tsai Neuro, 2025)Butts Pauly LabAiran LabNon-invasive brain stimulation opens new ways to study and treat the brain (Wu Tsai Neuro, 2025)Advancing Brain Resilience: 2024 Catalyst and Pilot Grant Awards (Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience, 2024)Researchers find response to ketamine depends on opioid pathways, but varies by sex (Stanford Medicine)A New Focused Ultrasound Neuromodulation System for Preclinical Brain Research (Focused Ultrasound Foundation, 2024)Translating Neuroscience Advances into Real World Uses (Wu Tsai Neuro, 2023)Get in touchWe want to hear from your neurons!

In honor of Essential Tremor Awareness month, this episode of Curing with Sound, features Michael Werner, a healthcare attorney, who has lived with essential tremor most of his life. After years of struggling with increasingly debilitating tremors that affected daily activities like eating and cooking, he chose to have a noninvasive focused ultrasound procedure. Michael's story highlights the critical gap in awareness about focused ultrasound technology, even among healthcare professionals. Despite having tremors since high school that progressively worsened with age, doctors initially recommended only medication or deep brain stimulation surgery without mentioning focused ultrasound as an option. It wasn't until a neurosurgeon at NIH asked why he wasn't considering focused ultrasound that Michael learned about this groundbreaking alternative treatment, which ultimately provided immediate and significant symptom improvements with minimal side effects. Key points include: Immediate Results – Michael's condition improved immediately following the two-hour focused ultrasound procedure, allowing him to write his name and hold objects steadily for the first time in years. Confidence in the Procedure – After successfully treating his right hand nine months ago, Michael plans to return for bilateral treatment to improve his left side. Advocacy & Awareness – As both a patient and healthcare lawyer, Michael participates in advocacy efforts, including a congressional fly-in, to raise awareness about focused ultrasound treatment among policymakers and potential patients.

In this episode, host Alyssa Watson, DVM, welcomes back Marc Seitz, DVM, DACVR, DABVP, to discuss his recent Clinician's Brief article, "Ultrasound-Guided Fine-Needle Sampling Techniques in Veterinary Patients." Dr. Seitz breaks down the key techniques for obtaining high-quality diagnostic samples, compares fine-needle aspiration with the nonaspirate (woodpecker) technique, and shares best practices for ensuring sample quality. He also covers potential complications, sedation protocols, and how to effectively communicate procedural risks and benefits with pet owners.Resources:https://www.cliniciansbrief.com/article/fna-tissue-sampling-fnnahttps://www.simparicatriodvm.comContact:podcast@instinct.vetWhere To Find Us:Website: CliniciansBrief.com/PodcastsYouTube: Youtube.com/@clinicians_briefFacebook: Facebook.com/CliniciansBriefLinkedIn: LinkedIn.com/showcase/CliniciansBrief/Instagram: @Clinicians.BriefX: @CliniciansBriefThe Team:Alyssa Watson, DVM - HostAlexis Ussery - Producer & Multimedia Specialist

Episode 291 hosts Dr Mobin Master, a Radiologist and Cosmetic Doctor from Gold Coast, Australia. We hosted Mobin way back in episode 93 where we first discussed the use of ultrasound in aesthetics. So we re-visit the topic, 4 years on to dicuss Mobin's research and experience in managing patients with filler complications.   We discuss the evolution of ultrasound and the pros and cons of injectors trying to learn this technology. Mobin explains the relevance of facial MRI scans in his practice to identify chronic filler issues, including conditions like post-septal filler placement and malar edema. He emphasizes the importance of precision and low doses when using hyalase and discusses his approach to managing complications like vascular occlusions and delayed onset nodules.    The conversation also touches upon the need for better training and patient management with complications, with practical advice for both novice and experienced injectors. We highlight the nuances in filler longevity and the realities of its impacts over time.   00:00 Introduction 00:15 Our Guest: Dr. Mobin Master 01:05 Journey into Aesthetic Ultrasound 05:40 Ultrasound in Aesthetic Practices 10:00 Challenges and Solutions in Ultrasound Training 15:02 Complications and Case Studies 31:52 Filler Longevity and MRI Studies 46:28 Dose and Dilution for Nodules 48:06 Advice for Non-Ultrasound Practitioners 48:43 Pricing and Consultation Process 49:39 Challenges and Frustrations in the Field 50:02 Insurance and Legal Considerations 51:33 MRI and Ultrasound in Practice 56:51 Understanding Vascular Occlusions 01:01:15 Training and Upskilling Injectors 01:10:33 Hyalase Safety and Myths 01:21:50 Avoiding Vascular Occlusions 01:24:19 Final Thoughts and Future Directions   CLICK HERE TO JOIN OUR PATREON FOR ON DEMAND EDUCATION & SUPPORT CLICK HERE TO BROWSE OUR IA OFFERS FOR DISCOUNTS & SPECIALS CLICK HERE IF YOU'RE A BRAND OR COMPANY & WANT TO WORK WITH US CLICK HERE TO APPLY TO BE A GUEST ON OUR PODCAST JOIN OUR LISTENER WHATSAPP GROUP & SEND US YOUR COMMENTS, SUGGESTIONS OR JUST SAY HI!
