Please see the information below From Dr. Roppolo:

TCEP will be hosting its first medical student SONOWARS competition at our annual TCEP CONNECT 2020 Meeting on Saturday, April 4 from 2-4pm. Students do not need significant ultrasound experience prior to the competition as we know this may not be available to some students. We will be providing participating teams some material to review beforehand to assist them with the identification of some structures on ultrasound but the competitions will most likely be equally challenging for those with prior ultrasound experience. The questions for the competitions will mostly be related to information that all medical students at the MSI and MSII level should know.

Only one team from each medical school can participate, however, different students from the SAME school can participate in subsequent competitions if the students more to the next round. There will be four rounds: all teams will participate in round I which will be a group quiz; the top eight teams will move on to compete in round II; the top 4 teams will move on to compete in round III; and finally, the top 2 teams will move on to the final round. Prizes will be given to the top 2 teams.

Each team can have no more than five students and only one of these students on the team can be at the MSIII or MSIV level. If all teams do not have one MSIII or MSIV, then the teams will only consist of MSIs and MSIIs. For the hands on competitions, students will be judged both on arriving at the correct answer and the time it took to arrive a the correct answer. We do request that each team compete in a tasteful costume of their choice for SONOWARS. Examples of previous costumes used in ultrasound competitions include characters from a Marvel movie, bottles of ultrasound gel, zombies, etc.

If you are interested in participating, please complete the form below BY MARCH 1.
