See below the link to the upcoming webinar presented by AIUM on prevention of work related injuries in sonographers.  The American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine, recently promulgated a guidance document that medical facilities may utilize to help reduce the high incidence of injuries in these health care workers.  Recently there was a grand challenge to reduce these injuries, much like what nurses have done related to lifting injuries.  If you have some time on Thursday evening I hope you can join us for this webinar.  Would love to see these injuries reduced over the coming years!  See the link here:
