Based on the theme “Towards achieving excellence”, this year, CUSP 2014 aims to raise the standards of Clinical Ultrasound by focusing on a standardised, protocol based approach to this imaging specialty. This knowledge sharing platform, we hope, will bridge the gap between the current guidelines and clinical practice. Workshops will focus on academic and clinical research, fetal growth and Recent
Advances in imaging technology. These sessions will not only help delegates gain insight into current evidence and advances in technology, but will also help them gather skills in research methodology. The scientific deliberations of the conference will cover a range of topics in obstetric ultrasound, fetal medicine and general ultrasound with ample room for interaction. CUSP 2014 will also have free paper communications encouraging and promoting excellence in research. Chennai will have enough to offer as you come yet again to this the city of Beaches and music, exotic silks and ancient temples to partake in the knowledge bonanza that is CUSP. Let us explore the ever changing world of ultrasound and fetal medicine together and give our patients the best of care.
