Looking for guidance and a clear understanding of the principles and facts on which you will be tested? With registry-like questions and clear explanations, Vascular Physics Review illuminates this challenging topic from the point of view of experts who themselves have taken and passed the ARDMS vascular physics examination. Vascular Physics Review reveals your strengths and weaknesses, hones your exam-taking skills, and assesses your progress as you study. Based on the exam outline published by ARDMS, this edition contains more than 450 questions that cover ultrasound physics, ultrasonic imaging, physiology and fluid dynamics, physical principles, and ultrasound safety and quality assurance.
Why are our mock exams so popular and effective? Because they contain the same kinds of thought-provoking questions you will find on the real exam! Currently approved for 7.5 hours of continuing medical education (CME) credit by the Society of Diagnostic Medical Sonography (SDMS).

Not a very helpful study guide:
This book was not worth the money or the time I spent working on it. I stopped wasting my time after the sixth chapter. Instead I studied Vascular Technology by Claudia Rumwell and that was all I needed. The questions in this book are outside the realm of what the vascular registry actually requires and I passed the test with a very good score. Also, the answers in the back of the book are mostly just references to other books, without many explanations.
Pass the Vascular Physics Exam on the First Try!:
Overall, this was a helpful practice exam that I found quite valuable towards passing the ARDMS Vascular Physics exam. In fact, I only had two other source materials from which to study, namely the Edelman physics book and another vascular practice exam by Lori Green & Lori Sens. These were enough to easily pass the exam on the first try. The Vascular Physics Review had over 3 times as many questions than the registry test so it was fairly thorough. However, some of the last sections could do with a few... more info
A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY:
THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS BOOK IS MORE FICTION THAN FACT. YES IT FOLLOWS THE ARDMS OUTLINE, BUT WITH SO FEW QUESTIONS PER SUBJECT IT PROVIDES LITTLE IN THE WAY OF PREPARING YOU FOR THE REGISTRY AND IS NOT WORTH THE EXPENSE. THE BOOK MAKES MORE OF AN EFFORT TO SELL YOU OTHER PRODUCTS RATHER THAN HELP YOU REVIEW FOR THE REGISTRY. THE CD ROM WAS USELESS, IT WENT STRAIGHT INTO TRASH.
