Teaching Activities

 

I have directed many students in their work on their MD theses, and many residents during their basic science requirement. I have also collaborated as director to several students for their PhD and MPH theses.

 

I am engaged in teaching ultrasound examination techniques and invasive procedures in my ultrasound unit. I teach medical students, ultrasound technicians, residents in our department, and residents from other hospitals.

 

I also teach perinatology and ultrasound examination to students of the school of medicine during the course of obstetrics and gynecology, as well as teaching these subjects in regular seminars for residents in our department and other hospitals.

I am active in teaching advanced ultrasound techniques in the School of Ultrasound of the Israel Society for Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology, Me'ir Hospital, Kfar Saba.
