Assessment of many clinical problems is enhanced with office based ultrasound. For many surgeons, this is like having a third hand, by providing sonographic images of the lump or structure in question. These images can be explained by Joanna providing immediate feedback and improving patient understanding of their condition. For added convenience, ultrasound fine needle biopsy is a simple brief minimally invasive test that can be done during consultation. There are added benefits of Joanna using ultrasound in the operating theatre to perform targeted surgery.
Joanna has her own portable high quality modern ultrasound machine and has Diagnostic Imaging Accreditation with Health and Disability Auditing Australia. Joanna holds a Certificate of Clinician Performed Ultrasound, awarded by The Australasian Society of Ultrasound Medicine.
