7) What other information is available?
There is much information available on the internet by using search words such as ‘ultrasound’, ‘exercises’ and ‘ergonomics’. The SCoR does not endorse any particular site or company but a search may be of value to individual sonographers. The usual cautions about the accuracy and content of some web-based material apply.
