Join us for this episode where we sit down with Dr. Phillip Bendick. Phil has been active in research and the clinical application of vascular ultrasound since 1971. He was a founding board member of the Intersocietal Commission for the Accreditation of Vascular Laboratories (ICAVL, now the IAC, Vascular Testing) and has served as a member of the Board of Governors of the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) and the Board of Directors of the Joint Review Commission for Education in Diagnostic Medical Sonography (JRC-DMS). He has published over 150 peer-reviewed articles, 17 book chapters, and has lectured extensively in the United States and abroad. He is the recent editor-in-chief emeritus of the Journal of Diagnostic Medical Sonography (JDMS). Phil candidly shares with us and what inspired his career in biomedical engineering and how it led to his outstanding contributions to the world of medical sonography.
