Become RPhS credentialed!

The Registered Phlebology Sonographer (RPhS) credential is for physicians, sonographers, nurses, physician assistants, and other associate health professionals who utilize ultrasound to treat vein disorders.

“The development of ultrasound has been the most important single factor stimulating the creation of the specialty of phlebology and improving our understanding and treatment of chronic venous disease. The RPhS credential is important because it is the only credential we have that addresses the full breadth of the practice of ultrasound in phlebology. It addresses not only deep venous thrombosis evaluation, but venous reflux and ultrasound in venous procedures as well.”

What content is covered in the RPhS examination?

The following examination matrix is provided to illustrate the general distribution of questions and the relative weight or emphasis given to a skill or content area on the examination. A detailed outline can be found in the CCI Examination Application and Overview booklet or on www.cci-online.org.

This session will provide a broad overview of cosmetic procedures that can be successfully incorporated into a vein practice. The procedures are in high demand and when performed properly have a high degree of patient satisfaction. Beginning and advanced users of Botox and Fillers will take their practice to a new level. For more surgically oriented procedures the participants will finish the session with an enhanced understanding of what training and mentoring options are available for safe integration into ones practice.

t Examination guidelines t t t E xa m time rec ommenda tions t C ontinuing profes s iona l educ a tion t And more!

The American College of Phlebology has partnered with the Society for Vascular Ultrasound (SVU) to create an educational DVD to demonstrate techniques of a lower extremity superficial venous examination. This DVD includes a comprehensive didactic PowerPoint presentation, patient examination and ultrasound clinical demonstration of a venous insufficiency evaluation.

The guidelines followed in the DVD are not intended to replace internally generated, laboratory specific protocols, but are to serve as a basis for developing or updating the procedure described.
