Conclusion

Congratulations on taking the first step towards adopting PoCUS as a part of your practice! The key concepts in this chapter can be revisited regularly to help you understand how to generate and interpret different scans. Orienting yourself to a 2D representation of a 3D object will take some time, so take any opportunity you have to reach for an US probe to hone your skills. Image generation is the most difficult skill to obtain with respect to PoCUS but with a systematic approach you will be able to reliably create high-quality scans that can enhance your clinical decision-making.
