This issue contains information on using the veno-arterial index in detecting renal transplant rejection, the oral abstracts presented at the Society for Vascular Ultrasound annual conference, a case where liquified thrombus mimicked an endo leak, the role in utilizing duplex ultrasound and hand acceleration time in managing and diagnosing shock, and microvascular flow imaging in a patient with portal vein thrombosis.

ACCREDITATION STATEMENT
This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of the University of Cincinnati and Society for Vascular UltrasoundThe University of Cincinnati is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians. The University of Cincinnati designates this live activity for a maximum of 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
OFF-LABEL DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
Faculty members are required to inform the audience when they are discussing off-label, unapproved uses of devices and drugs. Physicians should consult full prescribing information before using any product mentioned during this educational activity.
LEARNER ASSURANCE STATEMENT
The University of Cincinnati is committed to resolving all conflicts of interest issues that could arise as a result of prospective faculty members' significant relationships with drug or device manufacturer(s). The University of Cincinnati is committed to retaining only those speakers with financial interests that can be reconciled with the goals and educational integrity of the CME activity.
DISCLAIMER STATEMENT
The opinions expressed during the live activity are those of the faculty and do not necessarily represent the views of the University of Cincinnati. The information is presented for the purpose of advancing the attendees' professional development.
After reading and studying the papers used for CME in the March 2022 Issue of the Journal for Vascular Ultrasound, participants will be able to:
1. Explain how to calculate the veno-arterial index
2. Explain why the velocities in the veins were elevated after transplantation
3. State the normal resistive index value
4. List the sonographic features of giant cell arteritis
5. Describe Ebstein’s anomaly
6. State the imaging modalities used to assess nutcracker phenomenon-syndrome
7. Describe the ultrasound characteristics of the liquified thrombus seen in the aneurysmal sac
8. State the imaging modality that has the highest sensitivity for detecting endoleaks
9. Describe the characteristics of the pulsed Doppler waveform seen in the internal cavity within the graft
10. List the symptoms of shock
11. Describe the usefulness of the hand acceleration time
12. State the normal acceleration time in the palmer arch
13. Describe the ultrasound characteristics of liver cirrhosis
14. State a technique used to minimize motion respiratory artifact during an ultrasound examination
15. List the characteristics of portal vein thrombosis seen on computed tomography
Physician, Vascular Technologists and Sonographer members of SVU should find participating in this educational activity valuable
