Celebrate Medical Ultrasound Awareness Month with APCA!

Thank you for helping us celebrate Medical Ultrasound Awareness Month. We received many submissions and our winners have been notified. See some of the photos below.


Every October,  the Alliance for Physician Certification & Advancement (APCA) joins its companion Council, the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography® (ARDMS®)  and many other organizations that celebrate Medical Ultrasound Awareness Month (MUAM). MUAM is a joint effort of the Society for Diagnostic and Medical Sonography (SDMS), American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM), American Society of Echocardiography (ASE), Cardiovascular Credentialing International (CCI), Society of Diagnostic Medical Sonography (SDMS), and Society for Vascular Ultrasound (SVU).
