USS Resources
ACEM highly recommends the online modules prepared by UTEC below. These are very good and you can get an official certificate of completion for eventual credentialing purposes. You do need to register but this is quick and easy. See link below:

There are numerous other fun websites for ultrasound education (Thanks to broomedocs for much of the compilation below)
EMUGS
not-for-profit, special interest group focussed on progressing PoCUS in EM
The POCUS Atlas
free access archive of ultrasound images
Sonoguide // Sonoguide (acep.org)
ACEP has recently created this site. There are basic and advanced tutorials that are quite good and thorough
eFAST - YouTube and Abdominal aortic aneurysm ultrasound - YouTube
two good videos by Dr Adrian Goudie, a FACEM and ultrasound guru in WA are a good basic start to the E-FAST exam and AAA. At least he’s got an Australian accent.
Ultrasound Village (site down)
Emergency Ultrasound Teaching
A collection of resources and tutorials created by Geoff Haydn and the Medical University of South Carolina
SONOSPOT
a really nice blog written by Dr Laleh Gharahbaghian and friends. There are cases, educational videos and a lot of literature reviews. She also has a really extensive blogroll on her site – with links to heaps of other ultrasound resources.
5 Minute Sono and Core Ultrasound
Drs Jacob Avila and Ben Smith have put together a really slick site with, as you might expect, 5-minute videos of all the common US applications. Really well done with excellent images and narration.
Highland Ultrasound
a blog with a range of videos – largely aimed at ED and regional nerve blocks. Written by Dr Arun Nagdev and friends out of Highland Hospital in Oakland, California.
Emergency Ultrasound Teaching
another American ED US site – lots of short instructional videos and cases – similar to some others –
The mega-blog Academic Life in EM has a section devoted to Ultrasound
there are great literature reviews of the evidence and cool “US for the Win” cases. Part of the big ALIEM machine – well done and peer reviewed for high quality.
Ultrasound of the Week
also by Dr Ben Smith. A weekly case study with US to test your skills and see how the pros do it!
Dr Chris Fox is a legendary US teacher out of UC Irvine
He has put a whole heap of free video lectures up on iTunes – well worth watching on various topics. Has a great way of explaining the phenomena you will see and how to apply it in practice. They are a bit old now, but still mostly relevant.
Podcast – Ultrasound Podcast Last but certainly not least… this was the godfather of ultrasound education several years ago. Quite educational and fun at times.
