Invitation to Attend
 I would like to welcome you to the Fourth Annual ASUM Multi-disciplinary workshop, at the beautiful Gold Coast. Jupiter's Casino is an excellent conference site, with its central location to many of the fantastic sights and sounds; this surf city has to offer. Early autumn is a spectacular time of year in south east Queensland, providing a break from the summer heat. This year's workshop provides a range of opportunities, offering something for the beginner through to the highly experienced sonographer. Our keynote speakers this year include Terry Needham from the U.S.A, Anil Ahuja from Hong Kong and Jon Hyett of the Fetal Medicine Foundation. Terry is a popular vascular ultrasound speaker who is well known in Australia. He brings his immense experience to the program. Anil too, requires very little introduction, as he is known to many of you for his high quality general sonography knowledge and experience. Jon Hyett is well known in Australia for his work with the Fetal Medicine Foundation and in this program. He shares his broader experience as a Fetal Medicine Specialist. Our exciting faculty of local and interstate speakers further complements our keynote speakers. This year's workshop includes a two day musculoskeletal workshop as well as the traditional two day O & G, vascular and general sonography workshops. We have ensured that the program structure provides ample opportunity to attend a wide variety of practical workshops and plenary sessions. We have included a session on ethics and medico legal topics to address some of the growing challenges facing sonography. Once again we are offering DMU and DDU preparation courses, a nuchal translucency course and a pelvic floor scanning workshop. On behalf of the Organising Committee, we hope you enjoy the program and encourage you to make to time to experience all the Gold Coast has to offer.
