A Comprehensive Approach to Ultrasound

Education in Emerging Countries

Working with Carelift and Assist International to facilitate delivery and installation of the equipment, the Foundation has been able to provide equipment to many areas where high-quality ultrasound services were lacking. (Figure 4), (Figure 5 a and b), (Figure 6 a and b)

Today, the Jefferson Ultrasound Research and Education Institute under the direction of Dr. Goldberg continues to expand its outreach to the global ultrasound community through the Global Affiliate Center Network. In addition to his work at Jefferson, Dr. Goldberg coordinates the efforts of the Global Equipment Donation Foundation and of ICEAF, the International Certification and Educational Accreditation Foundation, a non-profit foundation that provides competency testing for physicians in regions where a formal competency recognition system is not already in place. ICEAF is currently delivering testing in Asia, South America, and the Middle East. A listing of ICEAF certificate holders and more information on ICEAF are available on the SonoWorld web site at http://www.SonoWorld.com

Throughout his career, Dr. Goldberg has brought a global orientation to his educational efforts, with his focus always on supporting delivery of quality ultrasound services to patients throughout the world. Physicians who use diagnostic ultrasound and their patients will continue to benefit from Dr. Goldberg’s achievements for many years into the future. Diagnostico Journal salutes Dr. Barry B. Goldberg as a pioneer in ultrasound education.
